Summary - STITCHPOOL FARM, ROAD FROM YARDE GATE CROSS TO HEASLEY CROSS EX36 3EZ
3 bed 1 bath Equestrian Facility
Barn with consent, 10 loose boxes and 12.75 acres — ideal for equestrian owner or developer.
Full planning consent for barn conversion (Application No. 79673, July 2025)
A rare equestrian lot in a substantial Devon holding: Lot 2 includes a stone barn with full planning consent (North Devon Council Application No. 79673, July 2025) for conversion to a single-storey family dwelling and about 12.75 acres of productive pasture. The yard features 10 loose boxes in a four-bay steel-framed stable block, an all-weather 40m x 20m outdoor school, a Monarch five-bay horse walker and two biomass boilers (one previously heating the farmhouse and cottage). Off-street parking and generous yard space serve the equestrian operations.
This plot will suit an owner-occupier with horses or an investor seeking immediate development potential. The barn conversion consent creates a clear route to residential use; there is also prior Class Q approval elsewhere on the wider holding for alternative conversions, underlining development interest across the estate. The land is level to gently undulating pasture, well fenced and divided into useful paddocks for grazing or turnout.
Important practical points are made plain: the farm buildings and yard require renovation and finishing and the lot is offered as freehold. The wider Stitchpool Farm is Grade II-listed in part, and listed status can complicate works on adjoining buildings; purchasers should confirm the implications for their specific plans. Services are currently shared across lots 1–3 (private water, shared mains electricity and drainage) and, if lots are sold separately, buyers of Lots 2 and 3 will need to provide independent water, drainage and electricity connections and secure necessary easements.
Buyers should verify connectivity and service capacity before purchase. Records show FTTP broadband availability (up to 76/15 Mbps) but other local data flag slow speeds; mobile signal is average. Flood risk is very low. This lot is offered at a guide price of £325,000 for purchasers seeking an established equestrian base with immediate planning upside in a quiet Exmoor-edge location.
