A very rare opportunity arises to purchase a substantial development plot with plans passed for conversion of an existing agricultural barn to form a very spacious and contemporary home in a superb and unique location, surrounded by open fields and countryside yet very close to the coast and within easy reach of the one of the UK’s very best golden sand beaches. Located in a rural position with a number of landscape designations including an area of outstanding natural beauty, the barn sits on the very outskirts of the popular a sought-after coastal village of Mortehoe, in an idyllic location in a small hamlet of properties. The picture postcard charming seaside village of Lee is also less than a mile away. The site has already been officially named and registered as Swiftsure and is a large linear agricultural barn that sits in a prominent position and will have allocated gardens and grounds that amount to 2.24 acres in a sunny south facing direction and enjoying outstanding far reaching panoramic views to a wide vista out over the Atlantic Ocean and the rugged coastline and inland over the surrounding countryside. There is five-bar gated access from the road onto a driveway which leads down to the barn.

The ground floor amounts to 382m2. Still available at ListedBuy!
