ABOUT THE LAND

An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful piece of north Devon countryside, extending to approximately 11.2 acres of attractive amenity pasture land and meadows with direct road access, appealing to a wide variety of interests and nestled amongst a partly wooded valley and adjoining the edge of Landkey Village.

A track from the road leads onto a public footpath and tarka trail providing direct access, the first section of which is owned within the land. Gateways lead into the enclosures. The larger parcel containing mature trees and an impressive lake extending to 0.7 of an acre with further smaller ponds and stream border.

The land is located just 0.5 a mile from the village centre and 2.5 miles from Barnstaple. Once off the lane, you feel like you are within a little world of your own. It is thought the land may suit a range of hobbies, through to camping or other rural interests and even income potential, given the idyllic setting (subject to any necessary consents).

In all, the property extends to about 11.2 Acres.
