Moorcourt Close, Sidmouth, EX10

Description

A rare opportunity to purchase an individual building plot in a sought after area close to Sidmouth sea front, with elevated sea views.

The plot was granted planning consent for a unique single storey detached property designed by architects BoHo, Paris (Henry Beech Mole) (East Devon District Council 17/2890/FUL). It has also been featured in The Architects Journal.

The plot is located a 2-3 minute walk from Sidmouth Golf Course and is 5-10 minutes away from the beauty spot "Peak Hill" overlooking Sidmouth town and "Jacob's Ladder Beach" respectively.

We understand from the sellers that groundworks commenced on the site within the required timescale for the planning to remain active, however any prospective purchaser should independently verify this information.
