What3Words location: fresh.drawn.companies


SITUATION


Barton Meadow is situated on the north eastern edge of the small settlement of Aveton Gifford, near Kingsbridge, in the South Hams area of South Devon. It is within short range of many coastal hotspots, and is situated only 5 miles from the town of Kingsbridge, which hosts a vast range of shops, restaurants and other businesses.


DESCRIPTION


Barton Meadow is an area of land extending to a total of approximately 0.88 aces (0.33 hectares), as approximately outlined in red on the site plan. The seller has been in discussion with the local planning authority, with a view to gaining planning consent for a residential development to include a shared communal driveway, integral garages and a stone-built car port, car parking provisions, bin storage and individual/communal garden amenity areas.

However, the sellers feel they have taken the site and plans to a stage where it now requires a professional developer to take it forward to completion.


TECHNICAL PACK


An electronic technical pack containing the following documents is available from the agents for buyers to peruse. Documents currently include:

1. Design and access statement
2. Architectural plans showing suggested layout
3. Further suggested layout plan
4. Tree survey


SERVICES


Mains water, electric and drainage are nearby available for connection, subject to the appropriate utility's regulations.

It will be the buyer's responsibility to arrange for the services to be connected.


EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST


Expressions of interest are invited by the deadline date of 30th November 2022.

Subject to contract the seller would be willing to enter into a 2-year option agreement to allow the buyer to obtain planning permission for change of use of land to residential. Buyers may wish to offer an option fee as part of their proposal.

Alternatively, the seller may consider a proposal where the buyer purchases the land outright and is not subject to obtaining planning permission.


TENURE


The land is held on a freehold basis with vacant possession being available in the event of a sale.
