Stockland, Honiton

This Grade II* listed Devon farmhouse, set in a serene valley, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. With just under 3 acres of land, including attractive outbuildings and a guest annexe, this property offers significant potential for development. Built prior to 1263, Townsend Farmhouse is one of the oldest surviving homes in the South West, featuring original architectural details like large inglenook fireplaces and exposed timber beams that can be preserved or enhanced during renovations. The farmhouse includes three spacious reception rooms and an authentic kitchen with a four-oven AGA. The first floor accommodates five bedrooms with potential for reconfiguration and modernisation of the two bathrooms. The nearby barns provide further opportunities; notably, a Grade II listed threshing barn could be adapted for various uses or converted into additional living spaces, subject to necessary permissions. Potential developments could also involve the wagon barn that has already secured planning permission for conversion into a three-bedroom holiday let—ideal for rental income or as a retreat. The expansive grounds include maintained gardens, meadows, and an orchard that could be enhanced or diversely landscaped to add value. Overall, with its rich historical backdrop and multiple usable structures on site, this property embodies considerable investment opportunities within the sought-after village of Stockland.
