Description
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a single building plot in a secluded and picturesque location on the edge of the historic town of Beaminster, close to open countryside within the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The plot benefits from having all mains services already installed, including gas, electricity, water, and drainage, as well as telecom ducting, which significantly reduces the cost and complexity of future development. The site, which is surrounded by trees and borders the River Brit, offers a level area for construction and has access via a shared driveway off the A3066. The proposed bespoke dwelling, to be built of stone under a slate roof, will feature a layout with a ground floor comprising an entrance lobby, reception hall, cloakroom, living room, study/bedroom 4, open plan kitchen/dining room, utility and boot room, and on the first floor, a landing leading to three double bedrooms, including a master with a dressing room and en-suite, and a family bathroom/shower room. Planning permission for this development was granted in August 2023, with the main condition being that the constructed building must be a single dwelling within the designated build area, with no holiday lettings allowed. The purchaser is expected to complete all construction and hard landscaping within 24 months of sale completion. The plot is situated in a lovely secluded setting just south of Beaminster town square, offering easy access to a range of local amenities, including shops, schools, medical services, and a variety of leisure and dining options. The town is well-regarded for its historical significance and community spirit, and the nearby market town of Bridport provides additional shopping and services. The Jurassic Coastline at West Bay is also within easy reach, offering coastal walks and beaches, and the towns of Crewkerne and Dorchester are accessible for rail services to London. Viewings are strictly by appointment with Stags, Bridport.
