A rare and exciting opportunity, this site offers Class Q conversion projects, with direct access and significant potential. Whether you are a developer seeking a proven scheme or a self-builder looking for a bespoke rural home, the flexibility, scale, and established planning position of this property make it a compelling investment in the heart of Devon.
Detached Three-Bedroom House with One-Acre Plot
Tucked away in a particularly private position, this attractive south-facing barn has approval for conversion to a detached three-bedroom home. Enjoying its own independent entrance and driveway, it offers seclusion from the larger barn development and captures uninterrupted views across the valley. The approved scheme provides a generous one-acre garden, offering the perfect balance of space for family living, gardening, or even smallholding use. For those seeking further scope, there is also flexibility to extend the plot by an additional acre, creating even greater possibilities for outdoor lifestyle or landscaping projects.
Together, these barns present a rare dual opportunity: a proven multi-unit scheme with clear development potential alongside a charming standalone home with land. The established planning consents and attractive rural setting combine to create a project of exceptional appeal for developers, investors, or individuals keen to create a home in the Devon countryside.
