Ermewood Barn is a substantial early-19th-century south-facing home once serving as the parish rectory. The stuccoed façade, arched entrance and tall sash windows give the house clear period character, while large reception rooms and high ceilings retain elegant proportions suited to formal family living or hospitality use.
The main house offers eight double bedrooms, each with an en-suite, arranged over principal floors with a third-floor mirror layout. A self-contained one-bedroom annexe at the rear provides independent accommodation for guests, staff or rental income, adding practical versatility to the plot.
Set in approximately one acre, the property benefits from walled gardens, raised vegetable beds, a terrace framed by mature wisteria and a gravel terrace that creates a Mediterranean aspect. The sweeping drive and enclosed lawn offer privacy and outdoor space for family life. Easy access to the A48 gives straightforward links across the South Hams.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal is average. The wider neighbourhood is classified as ageing rural; while crime is very low, services and transport may be more limited than urban locations. The house’s historic fabric will require sensitive upkeep and ongoing maintenance to preserve original features.
