Land for auction

A rare chance to buy a building plot on the edge of South Milton, one of the most sought-after villages in the South Hams. The land extends to approximately 0.17 acres. The plot is roughly rectangular and level, and is laid to grass. It is enclosed by mature trees and hedgerow on traditional Devon banks, which give the site a good degree of screening and privacy. The land has road frontage to the east and south at Sutton Cross, with access onto the lane along the southern boundary. We are advised that mains water and mains electricity are connected, with the water supply taken from the road at the south-west corner of the site. Permission in Principle for one custom or self-build dwelling, granted by South Hams District Council under reference 3651/25/PIP. Policy H5 of the South Milton Neighbourhood Plan requires new dwellings to be subject to a principal residency requirement. Purchasers should expect the new home to be restricted to use as a principal residence, and not as a second home or holiday let. A BS5837 tree survey and a Landscape and Visual Appraisal have already been prepared.
