Description

Situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (aonb) this development barn has recently acquired full planning permission for a two bedroom, single story dwelling located on a former farmstead.

The approved planning is to create a 2 double bedroom property with a spacious kitchen/ living/ dining room with bifold doors to the south facing garden to rear. A utility room and family bathroom will complete the internal accommodation.

The property will benefit from approximately 3 acres of pastureland to the western, Sea facing, boundary which has a huge amount of potential for equestrian use, a small holding or to be enjoyed recreationally.

Location

Located on the Hartland Peninsula, which is the most northern tip of Devon. This unique coastal headland has much to offer with its spectacular scenery, quaint fishing villages such as Clovelly and the historic Hartland Abbey with its impressive house and gardens. The whole area is protected as an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The barn sits within the quiet rural hamlet of Tosberry, amidst beautiful unspoilt north Devon countryside, with the North Devon coastline within close proximity of the barn. The quiet country roads surrounding, and inter-connecting the parish, offer ideal opportunities for walkers, the tourist trade and horse riding, however, have allowed the area to retain its quaint character and not become commercialised.

The A39, also known as the Atlantic Highway provides an excellent link to the port town of Bideford (14 miles) and the regional centre of Barnstaple (23 miles) with both towns offering a wide range of shopping and recreational facilities together with a mainline railway station and link to the M5 motorway.

The village of Hartland is about 2.5 miles away and has a small range of shops, doctors surgery and primary school. The award winning coastal town of Bude lies some 13 miles to the south and offers much to see and do with its two sandy surfing beaches and dramatic coastline.

Exeter, a cathedral city, is some 60 miles away and again offers a wide and diverse range of shopping and recreational opportunities together with a mainline railway station, bus terminal and regional airport.
