GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Extending to approximately 17,000 sq ft, set within a plot approaching 2½ acres, the barns are mainly constructed with steel frames, arranged in a stepped yard with direct access from the parish lane.
Planning permission has been granted by Mid Devon District Council under Application Number: 23/00264 for the erection of three new build detached two-storey houses (two four-bedroom and one three-bedroom), following the demolition of the agricultural buildings.
Additionally, following a reform of permitted development rights in May 2024, which increased the maximum number of dwellings within a former agricultural unit from 5 to 10 (Clarkson’s Law), there may be potential for retaining and converting the existing buildings, subject to the normal planning process.
