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.
