An exceptional opportunity to build your forever home in a peaceful and highly sought-after village location. This attractive plot benefits from planning permission for a beautifully designed three-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, thoughtfully planned to take full advantage of its tranquil rural surroundings.
Set within a quiet hamlet, the site offers the best of both worlds – a wonderfully private countryside position, yet within easy reach of the market town of Holsworthy and a welcoming community. The approved plans provide for a spacious, light-filled home that blends modern comfort with timeless character.
The ground floor is designed around a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, opening directly onto the gardens and perfect for family living or entertaining. A separate utility room, entrance lobby and cloakroom complete the ground floor. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms include a principal suite with en-suite bathroom, alongside a family bathroom.
The property will further enjoy private gardens with lovely open views to the north, together with ample parking for two vehicles.
Additional Opportunity
Available by separate negotiation is an adjoining plot of land to the south, which includes a substantial cob barn. This versatile building would make an ideal garage or workshop, or may hold potential for further development (STPP). The land itself offers a wealth of possibilities, from creating an allotment or additional garden space to housing small livestock, potentiallty could be used to provide further parking or garaging subject to gaining the neccassery consents.
The plot enjoys a delightful rural setting in this small hamlet yet is within about 5 miles of the bustling market town of Holsworthy with its weekly pannier market, schools, leisure facilities including an indoor swimming pool, golf course, and range of local and national shops including a Waitrose supermarket. Bude on the North Cornish Coast with its sandy surfing beaches and spectacular cliff sidewalks is some 14 miles. Okehampton, Dartmoor and the A30 dual carriageway is about 18 miles and links to the Cathedral City of Exeter with its intercity rail and motorway connections. There is a nearby primary school at Bradford together with a popular village hall. Neighbouring villages include Black Torrington, Sheepwash and Shebbear, the latter with its well-known public school.
