Orleigh Close, Buckland Brewer, Bideford, Devon, EX39

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a generous plot of land with full planning permission for the development of two detached single-storey detached bungalows, located in the sought-after rural village of Buckland Brewer, North Devon.

Positioned on the edge of the village and enjoying expansive countryside views, the plot benefits from an enviable setting offering privacy, open skies, and a true taste of country living — while being within easy reach of Bideford, the North Devon coast, and key transport links.

The planning permission, granted under application number 1/0409/2023/FUL, allows for the construction of two detached bungalows with shared access with private garden area, parking and garaging. The plot is level and situated in a peaceful yet accessible position, making it ideal for self-builders or small-scale developers looking to deliver high-quality homes in a desirable location.

The access up to the bunglaows is gently sloping, and well-positioned to maximize the far-reaching rural views. Direct access is available from an established road from Orleigh Close which extends to over 100ft and nearby residential properties create a welcoming setting without compromising on privacy. The approved designs are thoughtfully arranged to complement the surrounding landscape while offering generous internal layouts, parking and outdoor space.

Buckland Brewer is a thriving rural village that combines the charm of Devon countryside with essential local amenities including a pub, community shop, and primary school. Just six miles from Bideford and close to the North Devon Link Road (A361), the area is perfectly placed for commuters and families alike. The stunning North Devon coastline, including Westward Ho! and the historic fishing village of Clovelly, is just a short drive away, as are the scenic walking routes of the South West Coast Path.

Full planning documents and detailed drawings are available via the Torridge District Council Planning Portal using reference number 1/0409/2023/FUL.

This is a compelling opportunity to bring two bespoke homes to life in one of North Devon’s most picturesque settings.
