Occupying a delightful rural position on the edge of Stibb Cross, Red Barn Farm is an impressive and distinctive country residence enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside towards Dartmoor.

Red Barn Farm is a wonderfully individual country home, combining a beautifully converted five-bedroom barn, two substantial outbuildings and approximately 5.40 acres of gardens, orchard and paddocks.
Converted by the current owners in 2020, the property has been thoughtfully designed to retain the character and fabric of the original barn while creating a light, spacious and comfortable family home. Exposed beams and local slate window sills sit alongside generous areas of glazing, vaulted ceilings and a number of bespoke details, including individually designed stained-glass windows.
The accommodation is predominantly arranged on one level in an attractive U-shape around a south-facing courtyard, providing a sheltered and private setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
At the heart of the house is a generous kitchen with granite worktops, a central island and adjoining utility room. From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the impressive living room, where a vaulted ceiling, wood-burning stove and mezzanine snug create a particularly inviting space. Double-height glazing takes full advantage of the outlook, with views stretching across the paddocks and surrounding countryside towards Dartmoor.
There are five well-proportioned double bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family life, visiting guests or those wishing to work from home. The principal suite is positioned at the western end of the house and includes a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite shower room and glazed doors opening directly onto the garden.

A gated entrance opens onto a private driveway, leading to a substantial gravelled parking and turning area with ample room for several vehicles, trailers or a horsebox.
Whether you are looking for a smallholding, an equestrian property or simply the opportunity to enjoy more space and privacy, Red Barn Farm offers considerable versatility.
Barns & Outbuildings -
The property benefits from two particularly useful and substantial outbuildings.

The larger general-purpose barn measures approximately 18.79m x 12.29m and provides an exceptional amount of additional space. Suitable for a variety of uses, it may also offer potential for conversion or alternative use, subject to obtaining any necessary planning permissions and consents.
A timber field shelter is also positioned within the paddock and has previously been used for sheep and lambing.
