 **OPEN HOUSE - SATURDAY 7TH FEBRUARY - 1pm-3pm - BY APPOINTMENT ONLY** If you’re looking for a place where you can live life on your own terms - connected and yet in a peaceful, tranquil setting - Furze Ball could be exactly what you’ve been waiting for.

Set back off a quiet, country lane in the Webbery hamlet near Bideford, this well-positioned property combines classic charm with solid infrastructure, offering real flexibility for the right buyer. It offers privacy with no near neighbours, 3 acres with plenty of outbuildings, and just 15 minutes from Barnstaple and 10 minutes from Instow beach.

Built for Capability

The three-bedroom house is full of character—flagstone floors, a Rayburn range, solid slate worktops and thick stone walls. In traditional farmhouse style, it is solid, warm and dependable. The farmhouse kitchen has a Belfast sink and plenty of room to prep produce from your own land. Downstairs, the layout flows easily between the conservatory, living room, snug/office, and boot room—ideal for coming back in from the grounds or workshop.

Upstairs, you’ll find a generous principal bedroom with en-suite and two additional bedrooms with a good-size family bathroom.

An Impressive Array of Outbuildings

This property is a rare find for anyone who is looking for substantial outbuilding space. There’s a large detached workshop—ideal for mechanics, builders, engineers or serious hobbyists—plus a double garage, two traditional stables, a tack room, a Dutch barn and additional storage barns. Power has been extensively run throughout. Some have potential for further development or conversion (STP). There's also a good-sized glasshouse and greenhouse, as well as aviaries.

The Land

There are 3 acres in total including gardens, vegetable plot, mature fruit trees, four well-kept paddocks, two enclosures for poultry, a small lake and two wildlife ponds. It’s the perfect setup for a smallholding, equestrian use, or a rural home business. With direct access to quiet lanes and bridleways, it’s an excellent choice for horse owners or those wanting freedom to ride out without loading up a trailer.

The addition of solar panels and a Tesla Powerwall battery system also makes this an energy-smart move—cutting running costs while giving you more control and sustainability.

Coast, Town and Country Access

Despite the peace and seclusion, you're not cut off. Bideford and Barnstaple are within a 10–15 minute drive, offering shops, services and connectivity. Instow and Westward Ho! Are ten minutes to the West.
