More Social Housing?

I have just found out that not only is The Crofts still a very possible site for the new social housing being pushed on us (but not needed), but Malborough is also about to have a new batch of houses built which will only be sold to residents of Salcombe and Malborough!!

Am I missing something or are there hoards of people roaming around Salcombe with nowhere to live? Are there caravans lining Batson creek and filing up the park and ride? Are the camp sites full all year round? Are they being built to help house the all people needed to fill the thousands of job vacancies sitting empty and paying £30k a year?

This is all madness, where is it going to end, will it take the destruction of the Salcombe that we know and love before these ridiculous decisions are seen for what they really are??

Salcombe's Old Vinery for Sale

Is this perhaps going to be the finest house in Salcombe? That's a big call with some of the magnificent properties recently built or some of the fantastic original buildings that have been rennovated...

With planning for a boat house and your own (already existing) private battlement water side garden it doesn't get much better than this!!

At £4.5 million before you even begin to consider what you will do with your new purchase it's going to take some serious money to buy this plot and build your dream home! However, knowing Salcombe's amazing pull it will be snapped up by someone.

Apparently it hasn't been on the market for 100 years!

Have look for yourself...


You could, if money is tight, just buy the boathouse and battlement garden for a mere £1.1m and leave the £3.5m house to someone else. Dilema's dilema's...
