5 acres of gently sloping productive pasture with superb moorland views|Direct road frontage with easy access|Mains water and electricity close to the field|Freehold title; roadside paddock in National Park|Public footpath runs inside western boundary (can be fenced)|Hunting/shooting rights reserved by third party (not exercised)|Medium flood risk; mobile signal currently absent
Set on the western slopes of a dramatic National Park, this five‑acre roadside paddock offers open, gently sloping pasture with far-reaching views to Longstone Barrow and Woodbarrow Hangings. The field is productive and grassy, bounded on three sides by high Exmoor banks with mature growth, and has close access to mains water and electricity.
The plot is well suited to small-scale agricultural use, grazing, equestrian turnout or as an investment for countryside land ownership. Bridle paths and popular walks lie nearby, and the village provides a pub, post office/stores and easy access to local reserves and reservoirs. Barnstaple and coastal Lynton/Lynmouth are within a sensible drive.
Practical points: the sale is freehold, there is direct road frontage and a public footpath runs inside the western boundary (it has not caused issues but could be fenced out). Hunting and shooting rights are retained by a third party though not currently exercised. Mobile signal is absent on site; broadband speeds in the wider area are reported fast.
Buyers should note a medium flood risk and the reserved rights mentioned above. Mains services are nearby but not connected; any development or change of use would require the usual consents within Exmoor National Park and confirmation from local authorities.
