About this property

  • The Round House, formerly part of East Cornworthy Farm, offers a wonderful opportunity for someone to complete an ongoing project. The project initially commenced in 1985 with the approval by South Hams District Council to convert the main barn to a residential dwelling and later in 1988, permission was granted for the second barn to be incidental to the main barn. Planning reference numbers are 9/13/0251/85/3 and 13/2572/88/3 respectively. A third permission was granted in1991 for the third barn to be converted to domestic storage. The barns remain unfinished but considerable works have been done historically. The site occupies over half an acre of largely level grounds with a sweeping drive leading.
