THE PLOTS

An opportunity to acquire one of four individual building plots on the south-western edge of Newton Abbot, located to the south of Ashburton Road and within a new residential development named 'Bradley Barton' (being built by Persimmon Homes).

The plots will be offered with access to foul and surface water drainage and all other necessary utility connections (namely water, gas, electricity and telecommunications) these services will be accessible for connection from the private road in front of the plots.
