Description
An opportunity to build a bespoke 4 bedroom home in a 0.33 acre plot on a country lane with outline planning permission. Countryside views, double garage, private parking, and easy access to Templecombe, Sherborne, and Wincanton make this an ideal rural yet well-connected setting. Permission is for self or custom build - purchaser.
The Plot - Situated on Cabbage Lane, a quiet and picturesque country lane on the edge of the sought-after village of Horsington, nestled in the heart of the Blackmore Vale. The plot enjoys a peaceful rural setting with fine southerly views across unspoilt countryside, yet remains conveniently located for access to nearby amenities. There is potential to purchase additional land for garden extension.
Situation - The village of Horsington offers a strong sense of community and includes a well-regarded primary school, parish church, and a popular village pub. The neighbouring village of Templecombe provides everyday facilities including a local shop, doctors' surgery, and a mainline railway station with regular services to London Waterloo, making the location ideal for commuters.
The nearby towns of Wincanton and Sherborne offer a broader range of shopping, leisure, and schooling options, with Sherborne in particular renowned for its historic abbey, independent shops, and highly regarded schools. Road links are excellent, with access to the A303 just a short drive away, connecting to the M3 and London.
Planning Permission - Outline planning permission was granted on 4th June 2026 for the erection of two dwellings with some matters reserved for access. Intended purchasers should refer to Somerset Council's planning portal - application number 25/02706/OUT.
