The peaceful and tranquil location remains close to Holsworthy and just 16 miles to the A30 which links to Exeter and further down into Cornwall. Within striking distance of the local town and its amenities, this would make the ideal property for anyone looking to live “the good life”.

There are four bays with two columns to each frame. The bays are at 4.6m centres. There are gables to the front and rear walls. Attached to the left side is a single storey mono-pitched roof extension with masonry perimeter walls with steel beams fixed to the precast concrete columns. It is proposed to include this extension for conversion within this application. Attached to the right side is a single storey mono-pitched roof timber framed extension. It is proposed to remove this extension within this application. Attached to the rear is a single storey steel portal framed building. It is proposed to remove this building within this application.

There is a steel door post to one side of the front vehicular access opening and a precast concrete post to the other side. There is a precast concrete cantilevered wind post within the rear wall.

There is blockwork masonry up to approximately 1.8m above the internal floor level between all the columns and posts. Within the front wall there is close boarded timber above the blockwork and access door. The door is clad with flat galvanised steel sheeting fixed to a steel frame.
Within the right-side dividing wall to the right-side extension (extension to be removed) there is painted box profile sheeting above the blockwork.

Within the rear dividing wall to the attached rear building (to be removed) there is painted box profile sheeting above the blockwork to the right side and close boarded timber to the left side of the wind post.
