Planning

Initially this was a 2.5 acre plot, with the current planning application this will reduce the size of the current plot to allow the current owners to put in place their plans to create a single level, eco home in the lower garden on the Western boundary which will not impact the current house or views as access for this property will be from an existing road. We are currently awaiting the plans to be released on the Somerset Planning Portal, however, we shall have on file in the meantime drawings and plans for your perusal.
