Darkey Lane,
Okehampton, EX20 1JL

An exciting opportunity to acquire a well-positioned parcel of land situated on Darkey Lane, on the outskirts of the ever-popular town of Okehampton, benefiting from outline planning permission for the construction of two detached dwellings.

Set within a sought-after residential location, the site offers an excellent opportunity for developers, self-builders, or investors looking to create two bespoke homes within easy reach of the town centre, local amenities, and the stunning landscapes of Dartmoor National Park.
The plot enjoys a pleasant setting with a semi-rural feel, whilst remaining conveniently accessible to the wide range of facilities available within Okehampton, including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, schools, leisure facilities, and excellent transport links via the A30. The location continues to grow in popularity with both families and commuters seeking a balance between countryside living and modern convenience.
Outline planning permission has been granted by West Devon Borough Council under application number 2758/24/OPA for the construction of two dwellings, allowing purchasers the flexibility to design and create homes tailored to their own specification, subject to the necessary reserved matters approvals. The proposed development presents the potential for attractive family homes that could appeal strongly within the local market.

The site itself offers a relatively level area of land with good access from Darkey Lane and scope for landscaping, parking, and private gardens, making it an appealing and practical development opportunity. Depending on the final design, the plots may also enjoy attractive outlooks towards the surrounding Devon countryside.

Land opportunities with planning consent within Okehampton remain increasingly rare, particularly in accessible yet tucked-away locations such as this. As such, the property is expected to attract strong interest from a variety of buyers looking to capitalise on the continued demand for quality housing within the area.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, potential, and opportunity on offer. Further information regarding the outline planning consent is available upon request.
