This detached rural site in Aylesbeare offers a versatile income-producing setup across more than 6.7 acres. The main residence, a manager's lodge, four modern holiday lodges, a second cottage and five fully serviced caravan pitches are arranged within landscaped grounds and woodland — providing immediate holiday‑let trading potential in a well-connected East Devon location. A detached barn has full planning permission for commercial use, adding development flexibility.
The main house is light and contemporary with a vaulted 31ft open-plan reception, bespoke wooden kitchen and ground-floor principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite. The additional lodges and cottages share a consistent modern design, full-height windows and open-plan living, making the site straightforward to operate as a cohesive holiday business. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support short‑stay bookings and remote management.
Practical considerations are clear: the property is heated by oil-fired boiler and runs on private systems, which can be more costly than mains gas and requires on-site fuel management. Council tax is above average, and the setting is a hamlet/isolated dwelling, so daily amenities are accessed in nearby villages or Exeter. The site’s rural retirement classification and ageing local neighbourhoods suggest a quieter local market and may influence lettings seasonality.
For a buyer seeking an established, flexible rural enterprise close to Exeter and the East Devon AONB, this site combines immediate trading assets with room to expand via the barn commercial consent. It will suit investors or operators ready to manage a multi-unit holiday operation and the practical demands of oil heating, grounds maintenance and countryside running costs.
