Dolton, Winkleigh

Occupying an enviable position with stunning views of the adjoining countryside and on the edge of the beautiful North Devon village of Dolton is this rare opportunity to acquire a parcel of land for development (stpp). Whilst there is currently no planning in place the current owner advises us that planning for two single story dwellings should not be an issue post various conversations that he has had with Torridge District council, in fact planning had been previously granted on this parcel of land as part of a larger concern in the past as it falls within the village development boundary. It is planned that there will be private drainage with the other utilities readily available and access already in place from Cleave Hill. Given the fact that planning is yet to be obtained, we believe that the vendor has sensibly priced the plots and is also willing to entertain a pay half now and the rest WHEN planning is obtained deal. As a further carrot to dangle, our client also owns an additional four acre paddock and stable block adjacent to the site that he is willing to sell by separate negotiation.

The site is on the edge of the village of Dolton, a short walk from the pubs, shops and primary school, with excellent road links for easy access to Exeter, Okehampton and the A30.

There are many excellent walks in and around the neighbouring parishes of Dolton and Dowland, with the beautiful woodland and riverside walks of Halsden Nature Reserve right on your doorstep. Just a short distance away is the Tarka Trail cycle route, part of the National Cycle Network route 27, the Devon coast to coast. Join the route at Meeth or Petrockstowe and you can remain on traffic free cycle paths all the way to Bideford, Instow, Braunton and beyond.

Barnstaple and Bideford are around half an hour away by car and the beautiful beaches and stunning coastline a mere forty minutes, very popular with surfers, dog walkers and body boarders alike. Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks under an hour away, it’s clear to see why North Devon is so popular.
