3 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Holset Court is a charming group of barns nestled in the picturesque South Hams countryside, dating back to the late 1800s. These historic buildings have been thoughtfully converted into stunning modern homes, carefully preserving the character and charm of their period origins.

Amongst them is The Wagon House, a stunning three-bedroom stone-built barn conversion, set within approximately 2 acres of private grounds and landscaped gardens. This charming home offers breathtaking countryside views, private parking, and a peaceful setting just moments from the beautiful sandy beaches of East Portlemouth. Combining character features and distinctive architectural details with modern comfort, it provides an ideal coastal retreat or permanent residence in a truly idyllic location.

The property is entered through a large and convenient porch, which flows into a welcoming entrance hall providing ample storage. From here, it leads to the rest of the home, offering accommodation all on one level.

The lounge/dining room is an inviting and impressive space, with vaulted ceilings creating a wonderful sense of openness and triple-aspect windows drenching the room in natural light and warmth. With a wood-burning stove and French doors leading out onto the patio and gardens, perfect for entertaining, this room enjoys unrivalled panoramic countryside views.

The kitchen is well equipped and carries the same sense of light and space. With access to the patio and garden, there is a continued sense of indoor/outdoor living, enhanced by the glorious setting. A practical utility room leads off from the kitchen, providing additional useful storage.

The property offers three bedrooms, two of which feature the same characterful vaulted ceilings. The principal bedroom is very spacious and benefits from an en-suite bathroom, as well as wall-length built-in wardrobes. A small study area has been created providing an ideal home office space. A family bathroom also serves the property.

Outside, the property is set within approximately 2 acres of beautiful grounds and gardens, a true paradise including mature trees and shrubs, a pond, vegetable garden, greenhouses, and an orchard. It is the perfect space for keen gardeners and lovers of the outdoors. Additionally, the property jointly owns a further approximately 1.7 acres, which includes a large grassed parking area, well-landscaped meadows, and three ponds. All of this enjoys far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside and offers endless potential.

Furthermore, the property benefits from ample private parking, including designated spaces, garage, and a generously sized grassed area suitable for overflow parking.

Adjacent to the property is a pretty stone building currently used as a hobbies and laundry room, providing an ideal space for a studio or additional guest accommodation. Additionally, there are two substantial outbuildings, perfect for use as workshops or boat storage. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, they offer potential for conversion into additional garaging or annexe accommodation. Both buildings enjoy hardstanding to the front and boast exceptional views.

Overall, The Wagon House offers an idyllic rural retreat with plenty of space both inside and out, presenting endless potential in a truly fabulous setting.
