Description
FH Price: £400,000 Guide Price
Approximately 6 acres of former Devon limestone quarry land, sitting immediately adjacent to the settlement boundary of Kingsteignton — one of Devon's fastest-growing towns. This is an executor sale offered with vacant possession.
The site occupies a genuinely rare position: brownfield-edged scrubland within the Heart of Teignbridge, the area formally identified as the primary focus for housing growth in Teignbridge District. The emerging Local Plan 2020–2040 was found sound in December 2024 and is expected to be formally adopted in May 2026, bringing significant policy weight to residential and mixed-use development in this location.
Whether a housebuilder, developer, investor or land promoter, this is the kind of site that rarely comes to open market. Offers are invited on an unconditional basis only.
Location
What3Words: ///certainly.ridge.ladders
Kingsteignton sits within the Newton Abbot–Kingsteignton–Kingskerswell cluster, collectively the Heart of Teignbridge. Under Policy S4 of the adopted Local Plan, this area is earmarked to absorb approximately 50% of all new housing growth across the district.
Newton Abbot town centre — with a mainline railway station, retail, employment and leisure — is under 1.5 miles to the west. The A380, less than 100 metres from the site boundary, gives direct access to Exeter (approx. 13 miles) and Torbay (approx. 7 miles).
The site is immediately walkable to local schools, services and public transport, satisfying sustainable development criteria under both the Local Plan and the NPPF.
