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.

Working closely with our architect, our aim was to design a home that balanced generous shared spaces with areas for privacy, relaxation and individuality. Over the years our house has been continually upgraded, tweaked, extended and enhanced to meet the changing needs of family life.” “Among the many of the significant improvements we have completed, was the replacement and enlargement of the original conservatory, resulting in a spacious and comfortable family room. This has become the heart of our home, particularly for large gatherings of friends and family. Plus, it has taken on even greater importance in recent years since the arrival of grandchildren as our family numbers have increased. The kitchen has always been a priority and is designed as a truly sociable space. When the doors are thrown open, it offers a superb indoor/outdoor living experience, perfect for entertaining and everyday family life.” “Further thoughtful innovations included the demolition of old stables to create a much-loved cinema room along with a master bedroom suite, complete with dressing room. An independent living space was also created, providing flexibility for extended family members.” “The external spaces have also received  much attention. The grounds offer extensive open areas which have hosted countless celebrations over the years. One particular, delightful, event was a wedding reception for one our children when a large marquee was adjoined to the rear of the house and helped to generate a truly memorable occasion. In addition, with no light pollution, our location offers exceptional stargazing – an enduring delight for one of our grandchildren.” “This has been a truly special home in an incredible location, one filled with memories and milestones. As the time has come to move on, we sincerely wish the new custodians as much happiness and contentment as we have enjoyed throughout the years.”
