Property description

A rare opportunity to acquire a traditional barn enjoying a southerly aspect, situated in a lovely rural setting and having conditional planning permission to create a single dwelling.


Paradise Barn occupies a stunning location and enjoys a southerly aspect adjoining open farmland. The barn is set on an almost level plot, with stone walling bordering Church Road and having good access. The property is situated within the popular East Devon village of Colaton Raleigh, which is surrounded by some beautiful countryside, and there are excellent walks along the River Otter leading to both Otterton and Budleigh Salterton. There is a Village Shop offering day to day supplies, as well as a Public House and Church. There is also a bus service from the village to the surrounding area. The coastal resorts of Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton are within a short drive and the Cathedral City of Exeter is approximately fifteen miles, Junction 30 of the M5 motorway is approximately ten miles and Exeter Airport, with its national and international connections, is approximately six miles away.

Take the first turning on the left, which is Church Road and continue, passing the Church on the right hand side. Paradise Barn will then be seen a little way further along on the right hand side.
