Description
A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a residential development site extending to approximately 0.20 acres (0.08 hectares), benefiting from planning permission for the creation of four two-storey dwellings.
The site offers an excellent opportunity for builders, developers and property investors looking to undertake a manageable residential scheme with the considerable advantage of planning permission already being in place.
The approved scheme provides for the demolition of the existing store building and erection of three new two-storey dwellings, together with the conversion of the existing barn to create a further single dwelling, providing a total of four residential units.
With much of the planning risk already removed, this is an attractive opportunity to acquire a consented development site and progress towards construction, subject to satisfying the relevant planning conditions and all other necessary consents.
SITE MEASUREMENTS
The site extends to approximately 0.08 hectares (0.20 acres).
LOCATION
The site occupies a convenient position at the former Anchor Inn, within the Chudleigh area of South Devon. The location provides good access to surrounding towns and villages together with the wider road network, making the proposed dwellings well positioned for the local residential market.
PLANNING
Planning permission was granted by the Local Planning Authority in June 2026 under Planning Application No. 23/01853/FUL for:
Demolition of store building and erection of three two-storey dwellings and conversion of barn to single dwelling.
Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries of the Local Planning Authority and satisfy themselves as to the planning permission, approved plans, conditions and any other matters relating to the proposed development prior to bidding.
AUCTIONEERS NOTE
Development opportunities of this size, particularly those with the benefit of an existing residential planning consent, are increasingly sought after. The site represents an excellent opportunity for a developer to acquire a ready-consented four-dwelling scheme with the potential to create an attractive residential development in a popular South Devon location.

PRICE INFORMATION
Guides are provided as an indication of each Sellers minimum expectation. They are not necessarily figures at which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to Auction. Unless stated otherwise, each Lot will be offered subject to a reserve price (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the Lot during the Auction). This reserve figure cannot be higher than 10% above a single figure guide. Please check our website regularly at or contact us on for up to date information. At the fall of the hammer contracts are exchanged and there is no going back!
AUCTIONEERS NOTE
Please note that an auction administration fee and auction buyers fee are applicable and other fees or charges may be stipulated within the auction legal documents available to download from the auction website.
Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.
