Detached house for sale in Bishopsteignton, Teignmouth, Devon TQ14

Igher Radway Farm is an extraordinary property in a super location. The existing farmhouse was built in 1956 but planning permission has now been granted to demolish it and create a new outstanding home of approximately 7,631 sq ft. These new plans will create a delightful house in probably one of the best locations in Devon with extensive views across the surrounding countryside from Dartmoor in the west following the Teign Estuary down to the sea at Teignmouth in the east.

It is very difficult to put into words what an outstanding, high and private position the house occupies and viewing is very highly recommended.

Planning Consent was granted in 2020 for the demolition and reconstruction of a replacement dwelling with a new access and landscaping.
