LAND AT TOLLGATE FARM, CHUDLEIGH KNIGHTON

OUR DEVELOPMENT

OUR DEVELOPMENT

Welcome to our community website where you can learn more about our proposals for 57 new homes (predominantly bungalows) on Land at Tollgate Farm, Chudleigh Knighton. 

In September 2020, following a period of public consultation earlier that summer, we submitted an outline planning application for up to 60 homes to Teignbridge District Council (20/01736). By April 2021, and with the Council still unable to reach a decision on our proposals, we appealed to the Secretary of State for non-determination. Our appeal was granted in early 2022.  

With the principle of residential development established, we then shared our more detailed proposals with the local community. We held a public exhibition in July 2022 where our plans were on display and residents were able to meet the project team, view the proposals and ask questions. 

All the information on display at that event can be found here.

In November 2022, we submitted our reserved matters planning application to Teignbridge District Council. All the documents can be viewed on the council’s website, using the reference 22/02205/MAJ.

Our reserved matters application was approved on 27th April 2023.

 
 
OUR PROPOSALS

OUR PROPOSALS

We are proposing a high-quality development of 57 homes. As shown in our masterplan below, the site will be carefully landscaped with around 0.6 hectares (approximately 1.5 acres) of public open space. 

We are planning:

  • Around 39 new homes for open market sale, predominantly bungalows and chalet bungalows which are much in demand locally but undersupplied. We are a leading provider of this property type in Devon, which meets a need for homes not otherwise provided for in the market and will allow downsizing opportunities, thereby freeing up other family homes.

  • Around 18 affordable homes which would be available for shared ownership or affordable rent for local families.

  • A further 3 plots for self- or custom-build homes.

  • Around half of the properties proposed will be 2 storeys in height, and half will be 1 or 1.5 storeys, situated predominantly to the north to reflect the topography of the site.

  • Vehicular access would be off the B3384 only.

  • Parking will be provided in accordance with TDC’s standards. In addition, and to ensure enough parking on the development, we provide generously sized garages.

  • Public open space (0.6 hectares) would be provided, predominantly towards the centre of the site, incorporating a local play area.
