Description

A substantial former commercial building with two large outbuildings and a total floor area to the largest unit of approximately 4,681 square feet, offering unusual scope for a range of future uses. The property stands out for its size, flexibility and potential, whether as a base for continued business use or, subject to the necessary planning permissions, as a site with residential conversion or redevelopment possibilities subject to planning. This is an opportunity likely to appeal to buyers seeking space, practicality and longer term potential in one purchase.
From Bideford town, drive to the A39 and take the first exit signposted to Bude. Turn left at the first roundabout and then immediately right towards Littleham. Stay on this road until you enter the village of Littleham and after passing the sign on the right for the Crealock Arms, take the next left signposted to the village Hall. Continue on this road along Mount Pleasant and as the modern houses finish, there is an entrnace to the site on your left hand side towards the farm outbuildings.
