An exceptional chance to create your very own Grand Design in the heart of North Devon. This rare opportunity comes with full planning permission to replace an existing agricultural building with a striking, contemporary three-bedroom home with far reaching views, set in around 9.2 acres of land. <br/><br/>The proposed property has been thoughtfully designed to combine cutting-edge architecture with the beauty of the surrounding landscape. <br/><br/>Planned as a single-storey L-shaped home of approximately 150m², it features three bedrooms, a home office, and an open-plan living/kitchen/dining space - perfect for modern family life. <br/><br/>Expansive glazing will frame the panoramic views, bringing light and the outdoors directly into the home. The position enjoys open far reaching views with sea glimpses in the far. <br/><br/>For more information regarding the property please don't hesitate to contact the Bideford team. Viewings by prior appointment only with the sole selling agents Phillips Smith & Dunn.<br/><br/>Externally, the design embraces a bold, minimalist aesthetic with charred timber cladding, a green roof, and slimline aluminium windows. This not only pays homage to the area’s agricultural heritage but also blends subtly into the rolling countryside. A private courtyard garden is cleverly incorporated, providing a sheltered space to relax.<br/><br/>A newly planned 250-metre stone track will lead to the house, offering ample parking and easy access. The surrounding land, approximately 9.2 acres in all, includes pasture, wildlife habitats and two natural ponds - an idyllic setting for those seeking peace, space and a connection with nature.<br/><br/>The site is superbly positioned between Barnstaple, Bideford and Torrington, offering both seclusion and convenience. Just a short drive away is the village of Yarnscombe, known for its warm community spirit, church and village hall. Nearby, Great Torrington provides shops, schools, a supermarket, Pannier Market and the popular Plough Arts Centre.<br/><br/>For leisure and outdoor pursuits, the Tarka Trail and Torrington Commons offer miles of walking and cycling, while Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks can be reached within 30 minutes. The sandy beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are also within easy driving distance.<br/><br/>Planning<br/><br/>Full planning permission was granted on 22nd August 2024 (Torridge District Council, Ref: 1/0562/2024/FUL) for the demolition of an agricultural building and construction of a three-bedroom single-storey dwelling.<br/><br/>Services<br/><br/>A new private drainage system (septic tank or treatment plant) will need to be installed.<br/>We understand that mains water and electricity is available nearby.<br/><br/>Additional Information<br/><br/>Freehold<br/>Torridge District Council<br/>Property sold subject to existing wayleaves, rights of way and agreements.<br/>A boundary plan is available for identification purposes.<br/><br/>
