Set in a quiet rural hamlet near Barnstaple, East Harracott Farm is a substantial modern farmhouse rebuilt in the 1980s with light, south-facing main rooms. The ground floor offers a generous kitchen/dining space with a Rayburn, a large sitting room with stone fireplace, utility and cloakroom; four bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor. The house is freehold, double-glazed and heated by an oil-fired boiler with radiator distribution.
The property’s principal strength is the adaptable range of traditional outbuildings clustered around a rear courtyard. Stone barns, a former cow shed and a two-storey workshop could be used as studios or workshops now, or — subject to planning — converted to provide an annex or holiday-let/home-and-income opportunity. A private, fully fenced level garden lies beyond the buildings and there is off-street parking to the front.
Buyers should note practical limitations: broadband speeds are slow, heating is oil-fired (Rayburn primary), and there is a shared septic tank. The house has a single family bathroom and was built in 1980, so some modernisation or targeted refurbishment may be desired. Planning permission would be required for any conversion of outbuildings.
This property will suit a family seeking space and rural privacy, a small business owner wanting on-site workshops, or an investor open to conversion potential. Its large plot, quiet location and flexible buildings offer clear scope to add value with careful updating and consented conversion.
