A truly unique opportunity enjoying seclusion and tranquillity surrounded by farmland and enjoying panoramic views of the surrounding Devonshire countryside.

Approached by its private sweeping lane, Boskins will be found to be an impressive period barn conversion having been tastefully renovated by the current owner but with scope for further improvements. The courtyard of traditional barns and outbuildings, which are currently used for stabling and livestock, are considered ripe for conversion, subject to the necessary consents, whilst the landscaped grounds extend to some 3 acres and include large sun terraces and patios, a pond and formal lawns together with 2 Paddocks.
