ABOUT THE LAND

An increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful piece of north Devon countryside, extending to approximately 3.1 acres of attractive pasture land nestled amongst the picturesque Taw Valley appealing to a wide variety of interests. Formerly, the site was utilised for equestrian purposes with a range of stabling and benefitting from mains power and water connected whilst enjoying direct main road access.
A entrance directly from the B3226 leads onto the track with two gateways, one leading onto the land and the second to the stables via a concrete track. The Stables are divided into four enclosures on a concrete and brick base. Dimensions can be found on the enclosed floorplan.

The land is located just 0.4 a mile from Umberleigh bridge, 6.5 miles from South Molton and 7.5 miles from Barnstaple.

In all, the property extends to about 3.1 Acres.
