Description
This unique plot for a new house is situated in the open countryside of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering spectacular views down a valley across farmland. The site benefits from a rural setting yet is within reach of local amenities, with the village of Shute, featuring a primary school, church, and historic houses, located about 1.5 miles away, and the larger village of Kilmington approximately 3 miles distant. The property has easy access to the A35, providing a gateway to the market towns of Honiton and Axminster, which offer a comprehensive range of facilities including secondary schools, leisure centres, supermarkets, restaurants, and railway stations on the Exeter to London (Waterloo) line. The site extends to about 0.28 acres (0.11 hectares) and planning permission was granted in 1991 with a variation approved in 2021 for a south-facing three-bedroom detached house with an open-plan kitchen/dining room, a sitting room with bi-fold doors, and a studio with a bedroom, living space, kitchen, and bathroom. The property is off the grid with LPG heating, private drainage, and a private water supply via a well, along with PV panels and broadband connectivity. Mobile and broadband coverage may vary, with current speeds of 100-179 mb/s available from Starlink. The studio on site was erected as temporary accommodation and a planning application for its permanence was refused, which is currently being appealed. Potential buyers should be aware that should the appeal fail, the studio may need to be removed.
