A superb opportunity to create a pretty home within this tradition stone Linhay, with deemed consent, set within its own plot. Freehold. No Council Tax presently. EPC: Exempt presently.
Method Of Sale - The property will be offered for sale by Online Traditional Auction (unless sold prior.) The auction end date is Wednesday 9th October 2024 at 5pm.
The vendor reserves the right to withdraw or alter the property for sale prior to the auction end date.
Situation - The Linhay is situated to the North of West Leigh Farm situated just outside the village of Modbury in South Devon and within relatively easy reach of the A38 Devon Expressway. Modbury - the name deriving from the Anglo Saxon for "meeting place" - is a picturesque town in the heart of an Area of Outstanding Beauty. It has a highly-rated primary school and caters well for most everyday requirements, with a great range of independent shops, cafes, galleries along with two pubs, a Church and a gym. For more comprehensive needs, Kingsbridge is some 7 miles to the South and offers an excellent and varied range of shops, services and facilities whilst Plymouth, with its rail and air links is approximately 12 miles to the West. Modbury is on a main bus route and is also only some 5.5 miles from the A38. Nearby there are fine cliff-top and coastal walks and numerous beaches and coves.
Description - The Linhay is a traditionally built stone and cob barn set within its own plot of approximately 0.23 of an acre . The Linhay is accessed via a private track and parking will be available within its curtilage. The deemed planning consent is to convert into one dwelling arranged over two floors to provide an open-plan living, dining, kitchen along with a study/snug and a bathroom on the ground floor with two bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor.
The Linhay appears to have potential for further extension, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions.
Town And Country Planning - The building benefits from Class Q prior approval with which is confirmed as being required and given via deemed consent in decision reference 2531/23/PDM dated 25th July 2024. The decision sets out a number of informatives which are as follows:
‘‘Attention is drawn to the conditions contained within Class Q.2 of Class Q, Part 3, Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). Please note condition (3), which requires the development to be completed within a 3 year period from the date of prior approval being granted.
The applicants attention is drawn to the advice contained within paragraph 105 of the Planning Practice Guidance which states that the proposed works are only considered to benefit from the permitted development right on the understanding that no new structural elements are proposed. The existing building should be structurally strong enough to take the loading which comes with the external works to provide for the proposed residential use. If any new structural works are required then the proposal will not benefit from permitted development afforded by Class Q of Part 3 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended.)
You should note that certain wildlife habitats and species are subject to statutory protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and/or the Habitats Regulations 1994. It is a criminal offence to breach the provisions of these legal constraints and if your development impacts upon such sites or species you are advised to take advice from a competent ecologist who has experience in the habitats/species involved and, as necessary, any relevant licenses from Natural England.
The responsibility for ensuring compliance with the terms of the approval rests with the person(s) responsible for carrying out the development. The Local Planning Authority uses various means to monitor implementation to ensure that the scheme is built or carried out in strict accordance with the terms of the permission. Failure to adhere to the approved details can render the development unauthorised and vulnerable to enforcement action.’’
Two trees adjacent to the building are subject to a Tree Preservation Order reference RP/511026, this TPO is provisional so it is in effect but it is not yet confirmed and is subject to challenge by the current landowner and the TPO will be confirmed, amended or removed within 6 months of the 19th July 2024.

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
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
