Description
Set in an elevated rural position near Great Torrington, this five-bedroom detached house was built in 1990 on the site of a former barn. Its split-level design provides three reception rooms and three bathrooms, with the layout offering scope to be reconfigured, subject to the necessary planning and building regulation consents. The listing illustrates a possible arrangement for an independent annexe, although feasibility would need to be checked.
The house would benefit from internal modernisation, giving a purchaser the opportunity to update the accommodation. It sits on approximately 0.56 acres, with private south-facing gardens, countryside views, off-road parking and an integral garage. Great Torrington is around 2.5 miles away, while Bideford is approximately 9 miles away. The property is offered with no onward chain.

Confidence: MEDIUM
This spacious five-bedroom country house offers a distinctive rural setting, with established grounds of around half an acre, countryside views and generous reception rooms. The photographed interiors are clean and usable but traditional, making this a light cosmetic project rather than a major renovation; the older kitchen and bathroom fittings and classic reception-room finishes offer scope to refresh the look while retaining the home’s character.
At £750,000, the asking price is about 6.7% below the local average per square foot, a positive point for value. The possible independent annexe arrangement could add flexibility, subject to the necessary consents.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the traditional kitchen, bathroom and reception-room finishes while keeping the property’s beams and stone features.
- Make the most of the extensive lawn, established planting and countryside outlook.
- Explore the described independent annexe arrangement, subject to planning and building regulation consents.
