Services - The planning permission allows for a new sewage treatment plant serving the 3 proposed new properties, there may be scope to share the cost of this with the existing owners who retain ownership of the original property adjoining. We understand that mains water is available nearby and that the local electricity supply has recently been upgraded following the development of 5 houses immediately across the road (these are heated by air source heat pumps) The two parts of the site are divided by the access drive which is being retained by the vendors. The two elements of the sites combined amount to approximately 0.44 of an acre.
Directions - From Roundswell roundabout, outside of Barnstaple, proceed south on the B3232 Torrington Road for about 5 miles. As you arrive at the village of Newton Tracey drop down the hill and the entrance to the site will be found on the left hand side opposite a small development on the right and identified by our for sale board.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
