Property description & features

For sale by Public Auction on Wednesday 21st February 2024 at 7pm at The Strawberry Fields, Lifton Devon.
Just under 3½ acres.
Pasture paddock.
Mainly level.
Convenient village edge location.

Situation
The land known as Monkspark is located in the quiet rural village of Little Torrington, which sits 2 miles to the south of the historic town of Great Torrington which has excellent range of amenities.

The port town of Bideford lies some 9 miles away and again offers a good range of facilities. The regional centre of Barnstaple is 15 miles away and from here the A361 main road and the towns railway station links directly to the city Exeter.

This area of North Devon has much to see and do with Exmoor National Park being on the doorstep and access to the Tarka Trail, a 180 miles walking and cycling route through stunning scenery. The sandy beaches at Westward Ho! and Instow are fifteen minutes' drive away, as is the quaint former fishing village of village of Clovelly.

Description
The land at Monkspark extends to some 3.47 acres (1.40 hectares) and comprises a single mainly level pasture field located on the edge of the small village of Little Torrington.

Access is on the lands eastern boundary via a right of way over the village hall car park. It also enjoys main road frontage on its western boundary.

This pretty paddock would be ideal for those with equestrian interests, or to use for amenity purposes. In addition there may be some long term development potential, subject to gaining any necessary planning permissions.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
