A rare building plot with full planning consent [1/1015/2024/FUL] for a spacious 2 bedroom detached bungalow within a pretty semi rural location just 10 mutinies from Torrington.

Great Torrington is a charming market town in North Devon that offers a strong mix of everyday amenities alongside a relaxed rural lifestyle. The town has a good range of independent shops, cafés, pubs and regular markets, particularly in its historic pannier market, giving it a lively but community-focused feel.
Residents also benefit from cultural facilities like The Plough Arts Centre, as well as nearby attractions such as RHS Garden Rosemoor and extensive walking and cycling routes, including the Tarka Trail.
What really draws people to the area is its setting - perched above the River Torridge and surrounded by rolling countryside and commons with miles of scenic trails - combined with its friendly community atmosphere and slower pace of life.
