A rare Class Q development plot on the edge of Exmoor presented as Lot 3 of Stitchpool Farm. The sheep shed benefits from prior approval to create four two‑bed units (North Devon Council App No. 78791, Nov 2024), set within about 5.25 acres of adjoining pasture with attractive countryside views. The site includes an existing cattle shed which must be removed under the consent; there may be scope, subject to consents, to reconfigure or apply for alternative full planning for fewer, larger homes.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. The purchasers of Lots 2 and 3 must provide independent private drainage and, if the lots are sold separately, new electricity and water connections will be required (shared services currently remain with Lot 1). The farm lies in a remote hamlet setting with average mobile signal and FTTP broadband availability; flooding risk is very low.
This lot suits developers, small builders or investors seeking a countryside conversion with permitted development in place. It offers immediate conversion upside and enough land for private amenity, paddocks or orchard planting, but the buyer should budget for demolition of the adjacent cattle shed, installation of services, and any local planning conditions. Listed status across the wider holding and necessary easements for services may add complexity to phasing or separate sales.
