An excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial site of approximately one acre with outline planning permission granted for the development of three detached dwellings. Situated within one of Ilfracombe's most desirable residential locations, the site is just a short walk from Bicclescombe Park, which offers a boating lake, tennis courts, children's play areas and a well-regarded café.
The plot currently includes a detached four-bedroom reverse-level residence providing generous accommodation, along with a private balcony enjoying a sunny aspect and pleasant outlook. The property also benefits from gas central heating, driveway parking, garages and a useful outbuilding with power, suitable for a variety of uses including a home office, workshop or storage. In addition, the presence of a borehole offers a sustainable water supply to the site.
Outline planning permission has been granted for three detached homes, each proposed at approximately 180200 square metres, presenting an attractive development opportunity within an established and sought-after residential setting. The Section 106 contribution has already been paid, providing a significant advantage to any developer by reducing upfront costs and allowing the project to progress more efficiently through the detailed planning stage.
The location combines a peaceful residential environment with convenient access to Ilfracombe town centre, the seafront, local schools and key transport links, further enhancing the appeal of the proposed scheme.
This site represents an appealing prospect for developers or investors seeking a well-located residential project with strong market demand. Opportunities of this scale and potential within such a desirable area are rarely available.
Early enquiries are strongly advised.
Agents Note: The property is freehold and registered under title number DN38230, located within the jurisdiction of North Devon District Council. It is currently assessed as Council Tax Band C, with an annual charge of approximately £2,235. The property does not lie within a conservation area and is recorded as being at very low risk of flooding.
Outline planning permission was granted on 4th September 2023 for the construction of three detached dwellings, each with an approximate floor area of between 180 and 200 square metres. The discharge of conditions was subsequently approved on 16th November 2023 under planning reference 74198. In addition, the Section 106 contribution associated with the development has already been settled in full by the current owner.
The existing property sits within a plot of approximately 0.20 acres, with the total site extending to around one acre when the adjoining development land is included. The property benefits from gas-fired central heating, mains electricity and mains water, together with the added advantage of a private borehole.
