2 bedroom property for sale

CHARACTER CHAPEL AND MEETING ROOM WITH PLANNING FOR TWO DWELLINGS

An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a former Baptist Chapel and separate two-storey ‘meeting room’ building situated within the highly sought-after South Hams village of Stoke Gabriel.

Occupying a prominent roadside position on Paignton Road, the property comprises a traditional chapel building with attractive period features and generous internal proportions, together with the ‘meeting room’/ancillary accommodation. The property now benefits from full planning permission for conversion into two residential dwellings, offering a superb development opportunity in this desirable waterside village location.

Stoke Gabriel is a picturesque and thriving village set on a creek of the River Dart, renowned for its strong community, sailing facilities, village amenities and proximity to Totnes, Dartmouth and the South Devon coastline. Demand for residential property in the area remains consistently strong.

Full planning permission has been granted for conversion into two dwellings. The approved scheme, granted on the 4th June 2025 under application no: 3288/24/FUL ,provides for conversion into two self-contained homes, offering developers and investors the opportunity to create high-quality village residences suitable for resale or long-term letting.

Interested parties should make their own enquiries with South Hams District Council, Planning application: 2947/25/FUL - Planning Page for DEF | South Hams District Council regarding the planning consent, reference numbers and any associated conditions.

†Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.

Pricing information
The Guide Price amount specified is an indication of each seller's minimum expectation. It is not necessarily the amount at which the property will sell. Each property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the property will not be sold) which we expect will be set no more than 10% above the Guide Price amount.
