Description
This property is a former detached public house in West Down, North Devon, with planning consent to convert it into two 3-bedroom semi-detached houses and a new 4-bedroom detached dwelling to the rear. The site is situated on the rural outskirts of West Down village, approximately one mile from the village centre, which offers a parish church, community shop, pub, and primary school. The nearby villages of Braunton and Ilfracombe offer a range of amenities, including schools, shops, and restaurants. The site has access to the North Devon Link Road, which connects to the M5 motorway and Tiverton Parkway train station, offering a fast service to London. The property has a rich history, dating back to around 300 years, and has fallen into disrepair. The conversion and new build will provide three separate dwellings with private outside spaces, parking, and access to mains electricity and water. The site offers potential for alternative uses, subject to necessary planning consents, and the vendors may consider working with a purchaser to provide a private mortgage or development partnership. Viewings are strictly by appointment and prospective viewers should be aware of the site's condition, including loose debris and fire damage.
