This derelict detached barn presents a remarkable opportunity in a serene countryside location near Ilfracombe. The property boasts stunning rural views and is ideally situated to be transformed into a bespoke holiday retreat or a unique residential home, pending the necessary approvals. The setting provides an escape from urban life while remaining conveniently close to Woolacombe beach and the picturesque Ilfracombe coastline, making it attractive for both relaxation and outdoor activities.
The barn occupies a prime elevated position with planning permissions for a private drive, enhancing its privacy and seclusion. With generous grounds currently serving as a blank canvas, there’s plenty of potential to create an enchanting garden and outdoor space.
Proposed plans suggest an efficient layout across two levels, including an open plan lounge, dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, study space, and a main bathroom on the ground floor. A spiral staircase leads to the primary bedroom on the upper level featuring an en-suite bathroom.
The external amenities include secure access through a private driveway and ample parking. Surrounded by lush woodlands and framed by beautiful countryside vistas, this site is poised for development into a tranquil haven.
Key infrastructure such as water supply from boreholes is already in place, with options for solar energy connection available from nearby properties. Drainage can be connected to existing septic systems currently servicing other cottages on-site.
Please note that present regulations restrict this property to holiday let usage; however, changes are underway to make it available for permanent residency.
