Set within nearly 3.86 acres of rolling Mid Devon countryside, this newly built (2025) barn-style home combines contemporary design with generous, flexible living. At about 3,305 sq ft the layout suits family life or multi-generational living, with a self-contained ‘Linhay’ end that can operate as an annexe and a variety of reception spaces for work, play and relaxation.
The house is finished to a high specification with an open-plan kitchen/dining area, multiple reception rooms, a double-height entrance, and extensive glazing with bi-fold doors opening to a full-length terrace. Modern energy features include solar PV, an air-source heat pump and EV charging at the timber carport, reducing running costs and supporting low-carbon living.
Practical strengths include extensive off-street parking for 10+ vehicles, gated access, and useful out-of-doors space for trailers, caravans or equestrian use. The home is chain free and set five minutes from the A377 while remaining tucked away from main roads — a genuinely private rural retreat with easy road access to Crediton and Exeter.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property is in a high flooding risk area, drainage is via a treatment plant, and broadband speeds are very slow — important for home working. There is also a small buyer compliance check fee payable on offer acceptance. These factors suit purchasers prioritising privacy, land and sustainable running costs over immediate urban connectivity.
