An exceptional opportunity to acquire a superb development site of approximately 1.5 acres (or thereabouts), benefitting from outline planning consent for four detached executive-style homes. The site enjoys an elevated position with far-reaching valley views back towards Stratton, and is within easy walking distance of village amenities.

This prime parcel of land offers an outstanding opportunity for an upmarket residential scheme in a highly sought-after location, ideal for those looking to create a collection of high-quality detached dwellings in an established and picturesque setting.
