This remarkable Devon barn conversion, set on 15.5 acres of picturesque countryside, presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment while maintaining its unique charm. The property features a stunning blend of historic architecture and modern living, with the main barn carefully designed to allow easy access to both upper and lower levels from the ground. A distinctive roundhouse attached to the front adds a special character to the home, enhancing its appeal as both a residence and a potential investment property.
Constructed using local stone, this barn showcases traditional thatched roofs complemented by charming dormer windows. Inside, the generous spaces are filled with warmth and period details such as exposed beams and original roof timbers. The versatile layout includes a spacious sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove and an inviting drawing room with an impressive inglenook fireplace. The roundhouse has been transformed into an additional sitting area with a vaulted ceiling, creating a perfect spot for relaxation or entertaining.
The kitchen/breakfast room is well-equipped with quality appliances and offers breathtaking views thanks to windows on three sides. It seamlessly connects to the dining room and provides easy access to outdoor areas. The accommodation comprises five double bedrooms, all boasting lovely views of the surrounding landscape. The self-contained lower ground floor offers privacy options for extended family or guests, while three additional bedrooms are located on the first floor, including a principal suite with an en suite shower room.
Beyond the main dwelling lies further potential for development; a two-storey barn currently has full planning consent for transformation into a self-contained annexe. Additional outbuildings include an open-fronted three-bay barn, an American-style stable block, and a large workshop—each offering various possibilities for use or enhancement.
The external grounds feature manicured lawns bordered by mature trees and vibrant shrubs, along with a serene wildlife pond that enhances the property's overall aesthetic. With four well-defined enclosures suitable for livestock or other uses—combined with ample parking—the expansive land offers opportunities for agricultural ventures or leisure activities.

Excellent transport links provide easy access to Exeter and beyond; train services from Okehampton facilitate quick journeys to Exeter St David's station in just over half an hour.
With excellent schooling options nearby—both primary schools rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted—this property is not only appealing as a home but also
