The Land

There are two entrances from the adjacent A3079 that gives access to all three fields, totalling approximately 40 acres. The main entrance gives access to an internal lane that leads to a 3 bay, open fronted barn. There is also a smaller pole barn near the second entrance. The land is bordered by mature hedgin and Devon bank with a mixture of native mature trees. The larger top field of approx. 23 acres is separated from the lower field by a stream. The upper field has a new fencing installed a few years ago, but will need some minor repairs to make it stock proof.

Development Opportunity

Within the 40 acres of land there are a couple of agricultural pole barns, which might be suitable for conversation or other development opportunities. This is subject to gaining the necessary planning consents from the local planning authority.
