This offering presents an opportunity to acquire three distinct building plots situated in a picturesque semi-rural setting near the hamlet of Knapp, just 7 miles from the center of Taunton. The previous farm structures have been cleared, creating a blank canvas for new development while providing beautiful views across the surrounding countryside. Each plot benefits from essential utilities including mains water, electricity, fiber internet, and a connection to a new private treatment system for waste management.
Accessed via a private drive, these plots come with approved planning permission for five dwellings (with two already sold), allowing for a variety of residential options that cater to both individual needs and market demands.
- **Plot 1** spans approximately 1.92 acres and features an approved design for a four-bedroom detached home. There is potential to add a fifth bedroom above the garage under Permitted Development Rights, with an estimated total living space of around 2,647 square feet.
- **Plot 3** covers roughly 1.48 acres and has plans for a two-bedroom detached dwelling with possibilities to expand into the roof space or over the garage for up to two additional bedrooms, achieving about 2,420 square feet in total.
- **Plot 4**, at approximately 0.22 acres, is designed for a three-bedroom detached home offering around 1,741 square feet along with several outbuildings.
The surrounding area is rich in recreational opportunities courtesy of its proximity to Somerset Levels—known as The Moors—where residents can enjoy activities such as walking, fishing, paddleboarding, kayaking, and birdwatching. The nearby village of North Curry, only half a mile away, provides essential amenities including shops, a post office, pub, church, health center, and an outstanding primary school. For more extensive services and leisure options, Taunton boasts excellent schooling choices as well as dining and shopping facilities.
Planning permissions are in place (granted on November 7th) for developing five residential units in lieu of prior barn conversions. Notably, there are no Community Infrastructure Levy payments required nor any S106 obligations associated with this approval. A management company is being established for maintenance of communal areas which will benefit all residents.
This property not only offers immediate development potential but also long-term investment viability within a desirable location that combines rural charm with convenient access to urban amenities. Further technical documentation can be accessed upon request to assist prospective buyers in understanding the full scope of this opportunity.
