THE SITE



This site comprises a total of approximately 1.49 ha (3.69 acres) of land on the eastern outskirts of Exeter and the western edge of the village of Clyst St Mary. The site comprises an existing residential dwelling and garden, along with a gently sloping agricultural field (c. 1.24ha) currently used for equestrian purposes. The field offers excellent views to the west over the City and surrounds.



The site has frontage onto Frog Lane via the existing dwelling, and also to Bishops Court Road. Frog Lane has existing pavement from the entrance of the site into the village centre, where local facilities are situated including a shop/post office, pub and primary school.





PLANNING



The land is not allocated within the existing adopted local plan but has been identified as a candidate for residential development in the working draft local plan during December 2021 under reference Sowt_09. In that draft document, the land was given an Allocation Suitability Rating of 5 (out of 6) and considered to have capacity for approximately 40 dwellings. It has been considered as suitable for development and as such is shown in the Strategic Policy section of the working draft as being proposed for allocation. The new Local Plan is expected to be presented for public consultation later in 2022.



The land has not previously been the subject of planning applications for development but in the agents opinion has significant potential for development for residential purposes.
