2 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Set within the former courtyard of Knowle Farm on the edge of the small hamlet of Knowle, Horseshoe Barn enjoys a rural setting surrounded by open farmland and rolling Devon countryside. The location feels peaceful and tucked away from main roads, yet remains accessible, with Crediton just three miles to the east and Copplestone also within easy reach for everyday amenities and rail links.

Converted from stone barns around 2011, the property combines character with practical modern living. Inside, the accommodation is surprisingly spacious, with well-proportioned rooms and a strong sense of light and height. The ground floor has solid oak flooring throughout and is arranged as an open plan living and kitchen space, creating a sociable and adaptable main room with direct access out to the garden. Upstairs, the two bedrooms and large landing benefit from vaulted ceilings and exposed roof timbers, giving a sense of volume and architectural interest. The landing works well as a study area and offers flexibility should further alteration be considered, subject to any necessary consents. A beautifully fitted bathroom completes the first floor.

To the rear, the enclosed garden enjoys open rural views, providing a pleasant outdoor space without feeling overlooked, in fact the endless views make it feel a lot bigger than it is. There is also parking and a double open fronted car port within the courtyard, adding practical storage and covered parking for the property.

Overall, Horseshoe Barn offers character, space and countryside outlook in equal measure. It will appeal to buyers seeking a rural setting with architectural interest, yet within straightforward reach of town facilities and transport connections.

KNOWLE is a hamlet formed by a small number of historic properties. The settlement sits amid hilly farmland but is just 3 miles from the market town of Crediton which is packed full of local shops and amenities. Nearer still is the larger village of Copplestone with its active community, well regarded primary school (OFSTED Good), shop with Post Office, and farm shop. Copplestone also has train and bus services to Crediton and Exeter.

DIRECTIONS : For sat-nav use EX17 5BX and the What3Words address is ///competing.every.novel but if you want the traditional directions, please read on.

Leave Crediton on the A377 towards Copplestone and take the left turn (before reaching Copplestone) signed to Knowle. Continue past the church (on your left) and on the next sharp left hand bend, continue “straight on”, bearing left in front of the farmhouse and into the courtyard. The property will be found on the right. For viewings, parking maybe easier in the church car park and walk to the property.
