A FIVE-ACRE ‘potential development’ site less than three miles from the Glastonbury Festival site is up for sale.

The paddock plot, off the A361 at Piltown, West Pennard, comes complete with a range of barns in various states of disrepair and is being marketed by Webbers of Taunton with a guide price of some £295,000.

“Set in a glorious position with far-reaching views across the Somerset countryside, this five-acre site offers a rare and exciting opportunity for development or lifestyle use, with no restrictive covenants attached to the sale of the land or existing barns,” the listing said.

“The site includes a range of existing barns, two level paddocks, and benefits from mains water and drainage already on site.

“While a previous application for two new dwellings was refused, other properties and buildings on the site have more recently been granted consent, including Class Q approval and full residential conversions, suggesting strong potential for the right buyer to explore future opportunities, subject to planning.

“This is an ideal prospect for those seeking a self-build project, smallholding, or to develop existing structures in a highly desirable and scenic location close to Pilton and Glastonbury.”

There is a public right of way along the access road and up through both fields, it added, while mains water and drainage are in the access road.
