Description

Offered at auction, this freehold 0.18-acre plot in Creech St Michael includes an existing agricultural building and planning permission under reference 14/25/0029 for its demolition and replacement with a detached three-bedroom house of approximately 1,130 sq ft. The consented scheme includes a reception room, kitchen, two ground-floor bedrooms and shower room, with a first-floor principal bedroom, dressing room and en suite. Plans also show a garden, garage and parking, with associated access, drainage and landscaping works. The plot has vehicular access from North End Road and is offered with vacant possession. The village has a range of local facilities, while Taunton is around four miles away and provides further amenities and a mainline railway station. The listing also notes access to the M5 and nearby countryside. Buyers should review the planning documents and legal pack, including the stated £1,500 plus VAT buyer's premium and the proposed eight-week completion timetable.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £75,000, this is a notably cheap way to acquire a 0.18-acre freehold plot in Creech St Michael: the asking price is £66/sq ft against a local average of £321/sq ft. The photos show an agricultural building and overgrown areas rather than a finished home, while the listing says permission has been granted for its demolition and a three-bedroom detached house of 1,130 sq ft, with garage, parking and garden. That gives a buyer scope to deliver a new home to the approved scheme, subject to checking the permission, its conditions and the feasibility of carrying it out.

The D grade reflects a development opportunity rather than a ready-to-improve house: the project is extensive, and there is no renovation estimate or listing GDV available to assess the build economics. The existing building’s full condition is not established by the photos, so budget and programme need careful validation.

Key opportunities

  • Create the proposed 1,130 sq ft three-bedroom detached home, with scope to deliver the approved layout and finishes to your own specification.
  • Make use of the 0.18-acre plot to provide the planned garage, parking and garden, transforming the current overgrown and hardstanding areas.
  • Acquire a freehold site in Creech St Michael, with village facilities and Taunton around four miles away.

Key risks

  • Demolishing the agricultural building and delivering a new 1,130 sq ft home, access, drainage, parking and landscaping is a full development programme; establish build costs, timing and delivery feasibility before committing.
