The proposed two new contemporary detached dwellings have a combined area of approximately 390sqm G.I.A, with House B being proposed as a reverse level dwelling. Each property is shown with four bedrooms. Provision for five parking spaces have been included in the scheme, four unallocated spaces and one allocated space within the garage of house B. Electric charging points are also proposed for both dwellings. Cycle storage space is provided via the garage space (House B) and a store (House A).

MISTERTON, SOMERSET

Misterton is set to the south of Crewkerne and is a rural, yet well connected village with easy access to the larger towns Yeovil, Chard and the city of Exeter. Neighbouring Crewkerne is a traditional market town with a range of shops including a Waitrose Supermarket as well as a variety of cafes, pubs and restaurants and a main line railway station for the London, Waterloo to Exeter line. The surrounding fields and hills are crossed by public footpaths & bridleways which are enjoyed by local walkers and riders.

PLANNING & TECHNICAL

Somerset Council granted reserved matters planning approval (ref. 22/01405/REM) on 14th March 2025 for the construction of 2 new detached dwellings on land off Orchard Way, Misterton - following outline planning approval reference 19/02398/OUT. Somerset Council is a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) charging authority. Self build exemptions or relief may be applicable. The reserved matters approval was given in conjunction with a S106 agreement securing phosphate mitigation by way of a new woodland to be planted on the vendors retained land. The Agents are advised that the vendor will commit to undertaking this required work as part of a sale of the development site.

A planning & technical information pack accessed by a link to a drop box is available on request, the purchaser will however need to make and rely on their own services enquiries.
