Private gated courtyard with off-road parking and separate garage
Tucked inside a small gated courtyard in the heart of North Devon, this three-bedroom barn conversion combines rural character with everyday practicality. Converted from former stables, the stone and brick exterior, large windows and log-burning stove create a warm, homely atmosphere while offering lovely countryside views across the communal grounds. The layout includes a principal bedroom with ensuite, a separate shower room and a fitted kitchen with appliances.
Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed west-facing rear garden, off-road parking for two and an adjacent garage. Residents share three acres of communal land, including a pond and seating areas, giving plenty of outdoor space for children or pets to explore while remaining within the private development. The village location is quiet and rural yet within easy reach of Torrington and local amenities.
Practical points to note: heating is dual-fuel (oil plus log burner) and there is a shared private drainage system serving the development, maintained via a monthly service charge of £78. Broadband speeds reported are modest (around 16 Mbps via fixed links), though stronger coverage from mobile or satellite solutions may be possible. The property dates from before 1900 with granite/whinstone walls; insulation detail should be confirmed by surveys, as older stone walls can need upgrading.
This home will suit families or those seeking a peaceful countryside retreat with character, private grounds and garage convenience. Buyers wanting the fastest internet or the lowest running costs should consider the heating, drainage arrangement and potential insulation work when budgeting.
