Description

Presenting a distinctive opportunity, this two-bedroom detached barn conversion is set within an expansive plot of approximately 1 acre, complemented by an additional 2.5-acre woodland area. The property is offered with no onward chain, providing ease of transition for potential buyers looking to invest or renovate. The residence boasts a well-thought-out layout that includes a kitchen, separate dining room, living room, utility space, and cloakroom on the ground floor. Upstairs, you will find two generously sized double bedrooms, each featuring its own ensuite bathroom. The spacious interiors offer a blank canvas for those interested in modernizing or reconfiguring the space to suit their needs. Outdoor spaces enhance the appeal of this property with a mature and landscaped garden that extends across roughly 1 acre. This garden features a tranquil pond and a sweeping driveway leading to off-road parking, garage access, an inner courtyard, and an additional detached barn—each of which presents various possibilities for development or expansion. Significantly, planning permission has already been granted to extend the main house while incorporating the detached barn into the design. Furthermore, there is potential to convert the detached garage into a holiday let. These options make the property particularly attractive for buyers interested in creating multi-generational living arrangements or generating rental income. Located in Newton St. Petrock—a village often cited as a gateway to surrounding areas—this property benefits from excellent connectivity. It is within twenty minutes of market towns such as Great Torrington and Bideford and about an hour's drive from Exeter. The nearby Tarka Trail offers scenic walking and cycling opportunities along the River Torridge, enhancing the outdoor lifestyle available in this picturesque region. Additional amenities such as the Plough Arts Centre/Theatre, Dartington Crystal Factory, and Rosemoor Gardens are all accessible within a short drive, making it easy to enjoy culture and nature alike. This property represents not only a charming home but also an exciting investment opportunity in a desirable location.
