A residential development opportunity with permission in principle for the construction of two dwellings.
This level residential development opportunity occupies the former vegetable garden of Elsdon House in the centre of West Hill. It extends to approximately 0.5 acres. The site lends itself to the construction of two substantial family homes within a short level walking distance from the village centre in this highly favoured residential community.
Planning
East Devon District Council granted planning permission (Reference 25/0173/PIP) dated 25 April 2025. The consent is ‘permission in principle for the demolition of an existing greenhouse and the construction of two dwellings’.
The indicative drawings show accommodation in the region of 260 square metres (2,800 square feet) on each site, arranged over two floors plus a double garage for each property. The indicative layout will allow a purchaser to design their dream home in this convenient and highly sought-after location. Access to the site will be from the existing private drive to Elsdon House with a separate driveway to each of the two plots.
Services
Buyers are recommended to make their own enquiries of the relevant service providers. However, the seller has confirmed that mains electricity, water, and foul water drainage connections are available nearby.
Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)
The purchaser will have a liability to pay CIL unless the development is self-build. Details of the CIL cost can be found on the East Devon District Council website.
Location
The East Devon village of West Hill is well known for its mixture of individual properties in its lovely wooded landscape. The beautiful Cathedral City of Exeter is situated approximately 11 miles to the west. West Hill offers a number of amenities which include a church, hairdresser, dentist, garage, shop, a village hall and an excellent primary school. There is also a regular bus service to Ottery St Mary and to Exeter. More extensive facilities can be found in the nearby town of Ottery St Mary, whilst the highly regarded Kings School is within easy reach. To the North is the A30, which allows access to the City of Exeter and its International Airport to the west and Honiton to the east, which is on the London Waterloo rail line.
Directions
Leave the A30 at the Daisymount Junction and take the B3174 signposted to West Hill. Turn left into Bendarroch Road and proceed downhill passing West Hill garage on the left. Turn right (signposted Broad Oak and Metcombe) into Lower Broad Oak Road and after a couple of bends Elsdon will be found on the right.
