This is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire an elevated coastal plot of approximately 770 sq m (0.2 acres) in the highly desirable village of Bigbury-on-Sea. Set in an enviable position with uninterrupted westerly sea views across the stunning South Devon coastline, the plot enjoys gently sloping gardens and offers the perfect vantage point to take in the area’s spectacular sunsets.
Planning permission has been granted (Ref: 1222/23/HHO) for a ground, rear and side extension to redevelop the existing property into a spacious and contemporary four-bedroom detached home. The approved plans allow for four bedrooms with two having en-suites, a generous lounge, a separate study, a gym, and an expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area. The design also includes three off-road parking spaces and a detached garage positioned at the top of the plot.
This is an exceptional opportunity for anyone seeking a project with excellent development potential in one of the South Hams’ most scenic and sought-after locations. Opportunities to secure a coastal plot with views of this calibre, combined with full planning permission already in place, are extremely limited.
