Description

An exciting site with character, scope, and prime potential on the edge of Dartmoor.
Nestled just outside the historic market town of Tavistock, this former commercial site presents a rare opportunity to acquire a plot with significant development potential. Known as The Old Slaughter House, the land offers a unique canvas for redevelopment, whether for a residential dwelling, a bespoke self-build project, or a small-scale commercial venture, all subject to the necessary planning permissions.

The Site
The plot extends to approximately 1/4 acre with an existing structure on-site that may offer a valuable footprint for conversion or total redevelopment. Its discrete yet accessible location combines privacy with practicality, and the surrounding area is a mix of residential housing, farmland, and local businesses.
There is an additional portion of "garden area" available upon further negotiation.

Planning & Potential
There is clear potential for a range of uses, subject to planning consent. The site may lend itself to:
• A single luxury dwelling
• A live/work unit or studio space
• Mixed-use residential and commercial schemes
Buyers are advised to make their own enquiries with West Devon Borough Council regarding specific planning guidance and applications.
Services
Mains electricity and water are available nearby, though prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the exact location and availability of all services.

Location
• Situated less than 5 miles from Tavistock town centre, with its array of shops, cafes, and amenities
• Excellent access to the A386 and wider Devon road network
• Dartmoor National Park on the doorstep, providing stunning scenery and outdoor lifestyle appeal
• Approx. 30 minutes to Plymouth by car, offering rail links and a broader range of services

Key Features:
• Unique development site in a semi-rural setting
• Former commercial use – ideal for repurposing (STP)
• Existing structure offering footprint potential
• Close to Tavistock, Dartmoor, and key transport links
• Services believed to be accessible nearby
This is a chance to create something truly special, whether a standout home, an investment project, or a characterful commercial conversion, within one of Devon’s most desirable regions.

About Pilkington Estates, Stoke

Harscombe House 1Darklake View, Plymouth, PL6 7TL

Buying and selling property is both an art and a science. In the 21st century, the world of estate agency has blossomed in the digital environment, leaving many traditional firms left standing, eyeing the technology with confusion and suspicion rather than embracing it. The team at Pilkington Estates are digital natives, embracing everything the modern world has to offer to help present your home in the best possible light, and using technology to get the right message to the right buyer at the right time.

This contemporary, no nonsense approach is balanced by a sensitivity and empathy towards their customers, both buyers and sellers, that allows us to offer a truly one to one bespoke service.

We understand that every customer is different, and each client has different needs and requirements, so will customise any modern method of selling to suit individual requirements.

Whether you are an old hand with multiple sales under your belt, or whether you are selling a much loved family home for the first time, Pilkington Estates are careful to hand hold you through the process as much or as little as you need.

We can help keep your house hunting enthusiasm burning with intelligent recommendations or can take the strain of the entire relocation process by doing all the running around that you are too busy to do.

We sit comfortably in this fast-paced world, understanding your need for urgency. We bring an energy and confidence to the whole buying and selling process that will get the job done without the drama.

This is not an agency that likes to sit around waiting for the phone to ring!
