Boskins is a thoughtfully restored period barn conversion set in approximately 5 acres of landscaped gardens, paddocks and sun terraces, enjoying panoramic countryside views and exceptional privacy. The house combines original character—exposed beams, stonework and tall windows—with modern comforts including double glazing, a handcrafted kitchen/breakfast room, utility and two contemporary bathrooms.
The spacious sitting room extension with a striking feature fireplace creates a dramatic, sociable heart to the home, while a galleried landing and large Velux windows bring daylight to the three generous bedrooms. Grounds include formal lawns, a wildlife pond, two maintained paddocks and traditional outbuildings that currently serve as stabling and shelters.
Outbuildings offer realistic scope for conversion or redevelopment subject to planning permission (no application confirmed), making this attractive to buyers seeking equestrian facilities, a smallholding or multi-generational accommodation. The property is newly renovated overall, but the original granite/whinstone walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which may affect running costs and future insulation work.
Boskins sits on the edge of Horwood with easy access to nearby villages, the North Devon coast and towns including Bideford and Barnstaple. It suits buyers prioritising rural space, privacy and flexible land use who are comfortable with LPG-fuel heating and potential further works to improve thermal performance.
