Description

An exceptional opportunity in the heart of West Buckland, just minutes from the renowned Bantham Beach. This versatile property comprises a three-bedroom semi-detached cottage, two outbuildings, a double garage, and a generous plot with planning in principle (Ref: 2761/24/PIP) for two additional three-bedroom semi-detached homes—each with dedicated parking and a garage. This presents significant potential for development, investment, or multi-generational living.

The existing cottage offers three bedrooms and retains character, though it would benefit from modernisation. It could serve as a permanent residence, holiday let, or lock-up-and-leave coastal retreat. A private courtyard terrace to the side offers open countryside views. Across from the main house sits a two-storey outbuilding currently used as a utility and multi-purpose space. Subject to planning, it offers scope for conversion into a studio, guest annex, or workshop. The property also includes a private lawned garden and a double garage with ample parking, adding to its flexibility and future potential.

This is a rare opportunity with broad appeal—ideal for self-builders looking to create a dream home, investors seeking their next project, or buyers wanting a generous plot with a character cottage in a prime coastal setting. With its combination of existing accommodation, development potential, and location, this is a property that must be viewed to fully appreciate its scope and possibilities

Location-  The hugely sought after village of West Buckland is perfectly located between Bantham Beach and Thurlestone Village. The village offers a vibrant local community and is surrounded by the wonderful woodland and open countryside. Bantham is only a short level walk away where you will find the Sloop Inn, village shop and the mouth of the River Avon. The famous Burgh Island is located just off the coast and is easily accessible via a seasonal ferry from Bigbury on Sea, or a short stroll along the shoreline (tide permitting). The nearby market town of Kingsbridge (approximately 5 miles) provides a fantastic range of local and independent shops, restaurants, pubs, two supermarkets, a cinema, a leisure centre with swimming pool, medical centre, community hospital, schooling, and churches.
