To the south-east lies Witheridge (approximately 5 miles), offering further village facilities, while Tiverton, about 14 miles to the east, provides supermarkets, leisure amenities, further retail facilities and mainline rail services. The property benefits from excellent connectivity, with easy access to the B3137, linking to the A361 North Devon Link Road within roughly 4 miles and providing swift onward travel across the region. The M5 is accessed at Tiverton, junction 27.

Barton Moor provides the market with an exciting opportunity to acquire a versatile site featuring a three bedroom bungalow (AOC) alongside a significant range of agricultural buildings where Class Q permission has been granted for five dwellings all positioned in approximately 4.22 acres. The combination of the component parts presents a project for developers, investors alike, or those seeking a multi-unit residential scheme. The approved Class Q provides a strong foundation for future value, with scope to refine or expand subject to a purchasers requirements and the necessary consents.

Barton Moor Bungalow is originally constructed in the early 1980’s is subject to an Agricultural Occupancy Condition. While the property offers a well-proportioned and practical layout, it does requires a programme of renovation, providing an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to modernise and tailor the accommodation to their own requirements. The current layout comprises an entrance porch, utility room, kitchen, reception room, two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom. In addition, there is a single enclosed garage. The arrangement offers good flexibility and could be reconfigured or enhanced, subject to any necessary consents, to meet a buyer’s individual needs.

Agricultural Buildings.

Prior approval was granted on 19th June 2025 by North Devon Council for the change of use of the existing agricultural buildings to create five high-quality residential dwellings. The consent provides for three, three-bedroom dwellings and two, two-bedroom dwellings, all arranged over two storeys and thoughtfully designed to maximise internal space and natural light. The proposed conversions make excellent use of the existing structures, offering well-proportioned living areas and attractive contemporary layouts.
