A wonderful opportunity to purchase a building plot which has consent for a 3/4-bedroom detached dwelling along with 16.6 acres.

Situation - Located in a very private and idyllic setting in this pretty Devonshire village of Yarnscombe with a friendly community and village hall, offering a range of social and sporting opportunities for all ages, as well as a church and mobile library. There are a number of nearby pleasant walks to enjoy the surrounding North Devon countryside and situated within an easy driving distance of the coast. Great Torrington is just over 5 miles away with a range of leisure pursuits and amenities including supermarket, schooling for all ages, Pannier Market and the renowned Plough Arts Centre, which offers entertainment to suit all ages and tastes. The town itself is surrounded on three sides by common ground offering over 20 miles of footpaths and an abundance of wildlife, as well as the Tarka Trail. Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks are both within approximately a 30 minutes drive offering providing excellent out riding, walking and other country pursuits over the moors. The larger towns of Bideford and Barnstaple, approximately 9 miles away, provide more extensive retail facilities, leisure and transport opportunities.

From Barnstaple, there are links via the A361 which connects to the motorway network and Tiverton Parkway station at junction 27 of the M5. The local rail line at Umberleigh around 4 miles away has direct access to the Catherdral City of Exeter with mainline rail links, University and international airport.

Description - A fantastic opportunity to purchase a building plot with full planning granted for a detached 3/4-bedroom individually designed home amounting to around 200 square metres along with approximately 16.6 acres and enjoys wonderful uninterrupted countryside views from this slightly elevated site with few near neighbours.

Planning was granted on the 5th April 2023 under Torridge planning reference 1/0066/2023/FUL for demolition of the former stables and erection of a new two story dwelling which will be located within a former riding arena. Accommodation will comprise; On the ground floor- Entrance Lobby, Home office/Bedroom four, Living/Dining Room/Kitchen, WC, Utility Room, Shower room, Bedroom 1 with ensuite. The first floor will include two double bedrooms, one ensuite and the family bathroom. There is also potential to create an annex for dual occupation or Airbnb on the ground floor with its own entrance and space for a seating area, kitchenette and bathroom.

Externally there is independent access from the lane, ample parking to the front and large gardens. The land included which has been used for horses for a long period of time is showed on the accompanying Promap plan.

This is a very unique proposal and could be suited for anyone looking to create their very own equestrian property/facility, small holding etc.

All the appropriate documentation can be reviewed on the North Devon Council planning website using the planning reference provided above for access.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
