Wild Winds represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional private lifestyle estate in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal countryside settings. Extending to approximately 6,500 sq ft, this impressive six/seven-bedroom contemporary barn conversion combines outstanding scale, privacy and entertaining space with proven income potential, all within easy reach of the region’s renowned beaches. Currently operating as an established luxury holiday letting business, with trading figures available on request, Wild Winds offers considerably more than a substantial private residence. It presents a compelling lifestyle and investment opportunity, appealing equally to those seeking a landmark family home, a coastal retreat with income or a distinctive property from which to build a successful hospitality business. The property is set within beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds extending to approximately three acres, enjoying sweeping views across the surrounding countryside towards the sea beyond. The grounds provide excellent privacy, generous space for outdoor entertaining and the potential for equestrian use, creating a wonderfully secluded setting in which to relax, entertain and enjoy the North Devon lifestyle. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed for contemporary luxury living. At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living, kitchen and dining space, creating an impressive yet welcoming environment for family life, entertaining and holiday guests. Expansive proportions, high-quality finishes and carefully considered design combine to create a home of genuine presence and distinction. The first floor features a superb principal suite with its own private terrace, providing an idyllic retreat from which to enjoy the surrounding landscape and coastal views. The remaining bedrooms are equally well appointed, with five ensuite facilities supporting both comfortable family living and the property’s successful operation as a luxury holiday let. Further accommodation includes a dedicated playroom and a flexible media and playroom with a wall-mounted television, offering excellent potential to create a dedicated home cinema. These versatile spaces reinforce Wild Winds’ appeal as a property designed for relaxation, entertainment and memorable stays, while allowing future owners to adapt the accommodation to suit their own requirements. An Exceptional Additional Opportunity Available by separate negotiation is a neighbouring barn benefiting from planning permission for a further substantial contemporary conversion of approximately 7,500 sq ft, subject to confirmation from the approved plans. The consent is understood to have been secured under previous Class Q regulations and represents an increasingly rare and valuable planning asset, with comparable permissions likely to be considerably more difficult to obtain under current regulations. Importantly, the neighbouring barn is not included within the principal sale of Wild Winds and its approximately three acres. Instead, it provides an additional opportunity for a purchaser wishing to create the ultimate private estate, develop a second substantial residence, establish further guest accommodation or explore a wider commercial proposition, subject to the relevant consents and individual requirements. Additional adjoining land may also be available by separate negotiation, further enhancing the flexibility and long-term potential of the wider estate. Wild Winds is therefore not simply a large coastal home. It is a highly unusual and versatile proposition: a private country estate, a luxury entertaining house, a proven holiday letting business and, for those wishing to expand, an opportunity to acquire a neighbouring development project of exceptional scale and rarity. Opportunities offering this combination of lifestyle, income, privacy and future potential are seldom available in the North Devon market.

Occupying one of the finest waterfront positions within the Fal Estuary, Weston is an outstanding coastal residence, beautifully positioned along the highly sought-after Trefusis Road, one of Flushing's most prestigious waterfront addresses. Occupying an enviable front-line setting with uninterrupted views across Falmouth Harbour, the Carrick Roads and out towards the open sea, this remarkable home offers an increasingly rare combination of substantial accommodation, direct waterfront access, extensive foreshore ownership, and exceptional lifestyle appeal. Finished to an immaculate standard throughout, the property has been thoughtfully and comprehensively enhanced to create a luxurious coastal home that effortlessly combines elegance, comfort and practicality.

The property The accommodation extends across a generous and highly versatile layout, perfectly suited to both family living and entertaining on a grand scale. Throughout the home, the relationship between the interior spaces and the surrounding waterscape is immediately apparent, creating an atmosphere that feels both calming and endlessly captivating. Three separate reception rooms provide excellent flexibility, allowing the property to adapt effortlessly to modern family requirements. Whether utilised as formal entertaining spaces, relaxed family rooms, home working environments or additional guest accommodation, each room enjoys its own individual character whilst maintaining a strong connection to the exceptional setting beyond. At the heart of the home lies a state-of-the-art kitchen, beautifully appointed with premium cabinetry and striking solid granite worktops. Designed with both functionality and entertaining in mind, the space serves as a natural gathering point within the home whilst continuing to enjoy the magnificent coastal outlook. Across the upper floors, seven generous bedrooms provide substantial accommodation for family and guests alike.

Many of the bedrooms benefit from commanding water views, creating peaceful and highly private retreats that fully embrace the property's exceptional waterfront position. Throughout the residence, meticulous attention to detail and an exacting standard of finish are immediately evident, resulting in a home that is ready for immediate occupation without compromise. Furthermore, the property is offered to the market with the significant advantage of no onward chain, allowing a straightforward transition for the next owner. The gardens The outside space is every bit as impressive as the accommodation itself. To the rear, well-maintained gardens provide an attractive and highly usable environment from which to enjoy the remarkable views. Expansive seating and entertaining areas create the perfect setting for outdoor dining, relaxation and enjoying the ever-changing maritime activity that defines this unique location. A particularly rare feature is the property's ownership of a substantial section of foreshore, extending from the gardens down to the water's edge. Steps descend directly towards the shoreline, creating a privileged connection to the sea that very few homes are able to offer. This direct waterfront access significantly enhances the lifestyle appeal of the property, providing opportunities for swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, boating and enjoying the waters of the Carrick Roads directly from your own land. Opportunities to acquire homes with private foreshore ownership within such an established and desirable waterfront setting are exceptionally scarce. Boathouse Further elevating the property's rarity is the benefit of planning consent in perpetuity for the construction of a two storey detached boathouse with accommodation to the first floor, positioned at the water's edge. Full documents and information can be found on the Cornwall planning portal, under reference number PA20/03435. The views The views from Weston are quite simply extraordinary. From the principal rooms, bedrooms and gardens, panoramic vistas stretch across the waters towards Falmouth's picturesque waterfront, Pendennis Point and the open waters beyond. The outlook encompasses the Carrick Roads, widely regarded as one of the finest natural harbours in the world, where sailing yachts, traditional vessels and maritime activity provide a constantly evolving backdrop. Particularly special is the private balcony accessed directly from the principal bedroom, where morning coffee can be enjoyed whilst watching the harbour come to life, and evenings are accompanied by spectacular sunsets over the water. It is a feature that perfectly captures the unique lifestyle afforded by this exceptional waterfront setting. From sunrise across the water to spectacular evening sunsets reflecting across the harbour, the views provide an ever-changing spectacle throughout the seasons and represent one of the property's most defining characteristics. With sea-facing rooms positioned across multiple levels, the home has been designed to maximise its relationship with the water, ensuring that the remarkable setting remains at the forefront of daily life.

SELLERS INSIGHT “What first captivated us was the sense of tranquillity. From the moment you enter the property, the sea becomes a constant, calming presence. Whether we were hosting family gatherings on the terrace or enjoying a quiet morning coffee looking out over the water, the house always felt connected to its surroundings. One of the greatest advantages of living here has been the balance it offers between accessibility and peacefulness. The connection to the wider world is excellent – transport links are straightforward, making it easy to get around for work or travel – yet returning home always feels like arriving at a private haven. It has allowed us to maintain busy lives while having a sanctuary that encourages us to slow down and recharge. The local area has also been a joy. Wellswood is close by, offering a charming collection of bars, cafés, and independent shops, giving the neighbourhood a vibrant, village-like feel. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the landscape is endlessly rewarding. The scenery is always changing with the light and seasons, offering a new perspective every day. There is a wonderful selection of beaches and coves to explore; Ansteys Cove is less than a mile away, and there are countless coastal paths and secluded spots to discover on foot. The South West Coast Path is literally on the doorstep, providing some of the most beautiful walking routes imaginable. The views have remained one of the greatest pleasures of living at Reflections. Looking out across Lyme Bay is extraordinary, especially when contrasted with the rolling green hills that frame the coastline. It is a rare combination of sea, sky, and countryside that continues to impress, no matter how long you live here. Reflections has given us a lifestyle defined by calm, beauty, and connection – both to nature and to the conveniences around us. It has been a privilege to call this place home.” STEP INSIDE A statement entrance hall, finished with refined wooden flooring that continues seamlessly throughout the principal levels of the home, introduces the contemporary elegance of Reflections.

Black granite worktops contrast elegantly with crisp white cabinetry, and there is ample space for a large fridge/freezer and an integrated dishwasher. Together, these features create a sophisticated and functional culinary environment. Descending to the lower levels, a half landing provides access to a side patio – an ideal spot for a moment of calm or a sheltered seating area. On the lower ground floor, a hallway opens through French doors to a further private garden. This level offers five double bedrooms and three bathrooms.   A spacious double bedroom benefits from its own French doors to the garden, making it a peaceful and self-contained retreat. Adjacent sits a beautifully appointed bathroom, featuring marble flooring, a corner shower unit, a bath, and a WaterVue TV, delivering a spa-like experience. A further double bedroom enjoys two large windows overlooking the Bay, filling the room with natural light and framing the coastal views. An additional double bedroom has views over the Bay and an en-suite with a corner shower. Beyond this lies a flexible arrangement consisting of two more double bedrooms connected by a shared reception area. Both bedrooms open through French doors onto a shared terrace, inviting the outdoors into the space. The principal room has an en-suite bathroom which is striking, equipped with a freestanding bath, separate shower, and contemporary grey tiling. A generous walk-in dressing room completes this suite, offering both luxury and practicality. The final double bedroom completes the accommodation, distinguished by a large window capturing wide-reaching views alongside the French doors previously mentioned, ensuring the theme of light, space, and coastal connection resonates throughout the entire home. STEP OUTSIDE The exterior setting has been conceived to complement the property’s modern coastal aesthetic. Generous terraces flow seamlessly from the principal living spaces, creating natural vantage points from which to enjoy the sweep of the bay. Morning sun, dramatic sunsets, and the soft rhythm of the shoreline all form part of the daily backdrop. In addition to the two terraces, landscaped gardens frame the architecture with simplicity and elegance, offering various pockets of privacy and calm.  The side patio accessed from the half landing has a covered built in BBQ and bar plus a sunken hot tub and leads to a tiered lawn. The walled garden accessed from the lower ground floor hallway has been designed as a peaceful, low maintenance Oasis with artificial lawn distinguished by a raised bed and an attractive feature tree. A door leads into the external utility room. To the bottom of the garden is a Summerhouse, which could be used as a home office or gym. A private driveway and garaging, ensures both convenience and discretion. Every aspect of the grounds has been curated to enhance the home’s relationship with its remarkable maritime setting.
