Description
Opportunities such as this are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Situated in a beautiful Mid Devon rural setting, this useful block of land extends to approximately 4.7 acres and includes an agricultural barn, stable block, yard area and grazing land, creating an appealing package for those seeking equestrian, agricultural, recreational or lifestyle use.
The land benefits from its own direct access onto the adjoining country lane via an established field gateway, providing independent access from the public highway and making the holding both practical and versatile.
The barn sits within the holding and, together with the adjoining stables and yard, offers a range of possibilities for immediate use. Whether buyers are seeking a smallholding, somewhere to keep livestock or horses, additional storage space or simply a rural retreat, the property provides a fantastic starting point.
Of particular interest is the planning history. The barn previously benefited from Class Q consent for conversion into a dwelling under Mid Devon District Council reference 17/00755/PNCOU. Prospective purchasers should note, however, that this consent has now lapsed and there is currently no planning permission in place.
It is also important to note that the access arrangements have changed since the previous Class Q consent was granted. Rights of access over Nymet Mill and the pre-existing access serving the barn has been removed. Access therefore must be taken solely via the field entrance directly from the country lane, as identified on the indicative plan.
The sellers are seeking a straightforward sale and the property is being offered as it stands. It is not being marketed subject to planning permission, and buyers should satisfy themselves regarding any future planning prospects, planning applications or alternative uses.
For those looking beyond the immediate planning position, this remains a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial parcel of land together with useful buildings in a highly attractive rural location. Whether retained in its current form as agricultural or equestrian land, or explored for future opportunities, it offers considerable appeal and potential.
Agents Note: Please do not attempt to access the barn via Nymet Mill’s lane as this is privately owned. Access is solely via the field gate just beyond Nymet Mill’s lane.

NYMET ROWLAND is a small village set among Devon’s rolling hills and is thought to have started life as Norman manor, as per the Domesday Book listing of 1086. Since then, the village has seen several new additions, including a well patronised village hall, but is still regarded as a smaller village when compared with, say, its close neighbour Lapford, which has a pub, primary school and garage with shop. In the 1870’s the village had a sojourn with the national press who published the antics of a family referred to as the ‘Nymet Savages’. Today, Nymet is a peaceful village favoured for its proximity to a good road system and Lapford station, both of which offer excellent access to towns further afield.
