Planning Opportunity And Permissions

For those seeking longer-term potential, the property benefits from secured planning permission for the construction of a four-bedroom detached bungalow within the grounds under Torridge District Council planning reference 1/1161/2022/rem. We are advised that the usual time restriction has been removed following works commenced relating to garage foundations. In addition, there was previously planning permission granted for an extension to the existing dwelling under application reference 1/0138/2023/ful, although this consent has now lapsed.
Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial bungalow in a highly desirable setting with the flexibility to modernise, extend or pursue further development opportunities, subject to any necessary consents.
