114 plots for sale · 24 independent agents

The land search starts here.

Every plot comes with four plain answers, an indicative budget and the next three steps. Scroll, and we'll fly you down to one of them.

Listings snapshot 5 Oct 2026. 112 of the 114 have a map pin; the orange dots are those pins.

How it works

Find it. Check it. Then call the agent.

  1. Find a plot. Listings from independent agents, each linked to the original and dated.
  2. Read four answers. Each marked Clear, Needs checking or Problem, and labelled with where it came from.
  3. Do the next three steps. Then contact the agent yourself. We never handle or relay enquiries.

Question 1 of 4

Can I build here?

Needs checking

Stags says agent's words, not checked

“A single building plot of 0.16 acres with full planning consent for a self build two storey detached dwelling of 233 sq m.”

Source: Stags particulars, checked 5 Oct 2026

Mid Devon's decision notice says 26/00390/FULL

Full planning permission for 1 home, granted 13 May 2026. Work must start by 13 May 2029.

10 conditions. 3 need the council's approval before work starts: drainage, external materials, doors and windows. The home must be self-build, and extensions need permission.

Question 2 of 4

Any warnings on official maps?

Needs checking

Found at the map pin: a higher radon area.

Nothing found on the flood, protected-land, heritage, landfill and mining maps checked at the pin. Nothing found isn't a guarantee, so ask the agent too.

Question 4 of 4 · Ready to offer? Needs checking

Start here

You have the decision notice. Still to get: the sale plan, the title plan and the services information. The 3 most urgent steps for this plot:

  1. Get the documents from the agent. Ask Stags for the decision notice, the sale plan, the title plan and the services information.
  2. Have a solicitor check the title and access. They confirm who owns it and how you get in. Local firms listed: Everys Solicitors, Porter Dodson.
  3. Ask a specialist about the higher radon area. Ask what radon protection a new home here needs and what it costs.

Then the full buying path: 29 steps. Everything in this flight is from the live plot page, checked 8 Oct 2026.
