Planning & Development

The Land is not allocated currently for development in the Cornwall Council Local Plan, and is adjacent to the current Settlement Boundary, but not currently within it. It therefore has potential for promotion for potential strategic development in the future, either through the Cornwall Council Interim Policy Position Statement April 2025 via rounding off, infill, or exception sites; or the Local Plan Review. Note, the Property has not previously been put forward in the Call For Sites. Cornwall Council within the new Standard Housing Methodology have to find c. 88,000 new homes over the next 20 years, and therefore are keen to discuss new land opportunities. The current Bude-Stratton Neighbourhood Plan is dated February 2016 and only covers the period 2016-2030 Buyers should make their own investigations.
