    ABOUT THE PROPERTY

    Situated in a peaceful, sleepy hamlet of half a dozen properties on a quiet, country lane, Acorn Barn blends the tranquillity of a rural setting with close proximity to a town. This is an superb opportunity to purchase a plot with full planning for either a new build or conversion that feels a long way from the bustle of everyday life, yet is less than 3 miles from all the amenities at Roundswell, Barnstaple.

    Nestled on the edge of this former traditional yard setting the plot extends to just under half an acre, enjoying views over the surrounding countryside.

    Both planning applications were positively received by the local authority and completed smoothly – providing real choice as to how the site is developed – or indeed opportunity to re/apply amend. Currently, the two opportunities are as follows:-

    1) Full residential planning consent was granted in November 2022 for a conversion of the existing barn into a large two storey 5 bedroomed dwelling extending to about 360 sq m (3873 sq ft).

    OR

    2) Full residential planning consent has been granted in March 2023 for a replacement 4/5 bedroomed dwelling to make better use of the footprint and space providing a conventional and more traditional design to the finished home. - The proposed accommodation extending to about 178 sq m (1912 sq ft).
    The existing barn extends to approx. 340.8 sq m (3668 sq ft).

    It is also thought there may be the scope to obtain consent for more than one dwelling, if required.

    In all, Acorn Barn extends to approx. 0.49 of an Acre. Further land up to an additional 0.54 acres is available by negotiation. (1.03 Acres in Total). Please contact us to discuss further.
