Planning Permission to Convert Two Buildings to Create a Single Dwelling House
Residential Static Caravan
Large Summerhouse
Spacious Grounds and Pasture Paddocks
Approx. 2.2 Acres In All
Beautiful Secluded Location At The End Of A Long Private Driveway
Planning Permission was originally granted on 20th March 2015 under Application No: 2015/0203/FUL to alter and convert two existing outbuildings and construct a link building to create a single dwelling house. This permission was subsequently varied on 13th August 2021 under Application No: 2021/1494/VRC and the approved dwelling will have a large open-plan kitchen / family room with two en-suite bedrooms, a separate cloakroom and an adjoining workshop. Further information including plans and all supporting documentation can be viewed on the planning pages of Mendip District Council’s website.
The current owners have lived on the site for around twenty years in a residential static caravan which was granted a Certificate of Lawfulness of Existing Use as a dwelling house on 13th December 2025.
The property is set in a lovely secluded and sheltered position, well away from the road, a short distance from the village of Easton which has a garage, village shop, church and junior school. Wider ranges of amenities are provided by the Cathedral City of Wells and there is a local bus service between Wells, Cheddar and Weston Super-Mare.
