Summary - THE STUD BARN, HOLSWORTHY, WEST PUTFORD EX22 7LG
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large private plot with off-grid potential and panoramic rural views.
Planning consent for 5-bedroom detached home (≈330 sqm) granted 21 Oct 2021
Approximately three acres of land with very private, elevated countryside views
Private water supply nearby; site suitable for off-grid living
No mains electricity nearby; mains connection would be required
Private drainage to be installed; foul/surface systems not in place
Formerly used for horses — suitable for equestrian or smallholding use
Very slow broadband and average mobile signal in this remoter location
Independent access from council lane and off-street parking available
Set on approximately three acres with few nearby neighbours, this substantial building plot offers full planning consent for a contemporary 5-bedroom detached home (approx. 330 sqm). The approved design features large open-plan living, a snug, home office, integral garage and a generous rear balcony to capture extensive countryside views — ideal for a family home or a high-quality rural retreat.
The plot enjoys a very private rural position just outside West Putford with Bradworthy (shops, primary school) 4 miles away and Holsworthy (supermarket, medical services) about 7.6 miles. Independent access from a council lane, off-street parking and gently sloping land previously used for horses add practical value for equestrian use, smallholding or formal landscaping.
Important practical points are clear: mains electricity is not nearby, private drainage will need installing and a private water supply sits close to the site. Broadband speeds are very slow and the location is a remoter, rural community — strengths for off-grid living but limiting if you require fast connectivity or ready mains services.
This plot suits buyers seeking a bespoke new build with contemporary, energy-efficient design potential (solar-ready shown) or investors looking for a rare consented development in a tranquil countryside setting. Review Torridge District Council planning reference 1/1007/2021/FUL (granted 21 Oct 2021) for full consent details before proceeding.
