5 bed detached house for sale

Stibb Cross, Torrington EX38

Beautiful and spacious 5 bedroom modern barn conversion with outbuildings and paddocks set in approximately 5.40 acres

The Property

Red Barn Farm is a unique u-shaped south facing barn conversion which was designed and converted in 2020 by the current owners. It finely balances the original character of the barn combining traditional exposed beams and local slate sills with modern, light and spacious living accommodation. The current owners added bespoke finishes when it was converted, such as individually designed stained glass window features.
With the benefit of single storey living and 5 spacious double bedrooms this property offers flexible living with potential for a home office or gym or utilised as a comfortable family home. The principal suite is located in the western end of the property with large bedroom, walk in wardrobe and en-suite as well as sliding glass doors leading straight into the gardens.
The kitchen with granite worktops, central island and high ceilings offers a functional and social space with adjoining utility with cloakroom. Adjacent is the living room where the vaulted ceilings continue in the fresh modern space with the benefit of a wood burner and mezzanine snug creating a cosy feel. The double height gable end windows leading to the outdoor seating area allows the room to truly benefit from the views across the paddocks to the Devon countryside beyond. Central to the house is a south-facing courtyard space ideal for outdoor entertaining. There is also a small balcony overlooking the courtyard and land, being south-facing allowing you to soak up the views of Dartmoor.

Outside

The outside space and its potential are a defining feature for this property. The secured gateway entrance, with security camera system, leads to the private driveway which comes to the front of the property with large gravel parking area suitable for multiple vehicles.
With several outbuildings, grass paddocks and orchard set in approximately 5.40 acres, this property has the potential for livestock and equestrian use. It has been well designed to make the most of more traditional garden spaces and small orchard. The grass paddocks have been well managed and divided into parcels by secure livestock fencing.

Outbuildings

The timber workshop (13.78 x 6.23 metres) is currently utilised as additional storage but would be well suited to conversion for stables or livestock as it benefits from concrete floor, water and electricity connection.
The general purpose barn (18.79 x 12.29 metres) is currently utilised for storage and would be well suited to a wide range of uses, including potential conversion, subject to planning consents. There is also a timber field shelter which has been used for housing sheep and lambing located within the paddock. There may be additional planning potential subject to obtaining the required consents.

Situation

The property is located on the edge of the popular village of Stibb Cross with popular pub and farm shop. For further amenities, the historic market town of Torrington is approximately 5.5 miles away and benefits from amenities such as banks, Post Office, supermarkets, butchers and various independent stores.
There are a number of good-rated schools in the area both in surrounding villages and larger towns.
The property is located within 10 miles of the North Devon coastline meaning it is easily accessible for days out at the beaches of Clovelly and Westward Ho!
