Description

An exciting opportunity to acquire a garage/workshop with planning permission already granted for conversion into a two-bedroom detached home, situated in a popular residential area of Ilfracombe and enjoying attractive views towards the Torrs.

Planning permission has been granted under Planning Application 78048 for the change of use and conversion of the existing garage and store into a detached residential dwelling, giving purchasers the opportunity to create an individual home without the uncertainty of seeking initial planning consent.

The approved scheme provides two-bedroom accommodation, with the proposed design making excellent use of the existing building and its position.

Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking together with a private garden area, adding considerable appeal to the finished home.

Alternatively, for those not looking to undertake the conversion immediately, the existing building provides useful garage, workshop and storage space, subject to the purchaser's requirements and any necessary consents.

The property is conveniently positioned for Ilfracombe town centre, harbour and seafront, while also being within easy reach of the Torrs and the spectacular South West Coast Path.

With planning permission already secured, this is a fantastic opportunity for developers, investors or purchasers looking for a project to create their own detached home in this popular North Devon coastal town.

Planning Reference: 78048

Ilfracombe is a characterful Victorian seaside town offering a good range of everyday amenities, including independent shops, supermarkets, schools, a cinema, healthcare facilities and a variety of cafés, bars and restaurants. The picturesque harbour remains a focal point of the town, home to the iconic Verity statue, along with a selection of galleries and eateries. The town also benefits from a modern watersports centre and the well-regarded Ilfracombe Aquarium.

A range of local events and seasonal festivals take place throughout the year, many centred around the harbour and seafront, including performances at the Landmark Theatre. The surrounding North Devon coastline is renowned for its natural beauty, with nearby Hele Bay offering a more sheltered beach, while the award-winning beaches at Woolacombe, Croyde and Putsborough are all within easy reach by car.

The regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 20 minutes away, providing a wider selection of national retailers, leisure facilities and transport connections, including rail links to Exeter and beyond.
