Devon, England EX16 9PW

A Home of Rare Distinction Oakdale represents a unique opportunity to create a bespoke self-build dwelling in one of Mid Devon's most sought-after villages. With full planning permission already granted (Ref: 24/00818/FULL - Mid Devon Council), the approved design embodies the essence of modern rural living. Carefully conceived, it combines flowing open-plan interiors with versatile reception spaces and seamless connections to the outdoors. At the heart of the plans is a striking kitchen, dining and living space, with expansive glazing to frame countryside views and flood the interiors with natural light. The scheme provides four double bedrooms, including a ground-floor principal suite with en-suite facilities. Upstairs, three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, while the layout also incorporates a dedicated boot room and a downstairs cloakroom/WC, reflecting the practicalities of rural life. The orientation of the scheme maximises natural light and outlook, while provision for sustainable technologies - such as high-performance insulation, low-carbon heating, and EV-ready infrastructure - ensures the home can meet modern standards of comfort and efficiency. This is a rare opportunity to bring to life a residence designed for entertaining, family living and quiet retreat in equal measure.

A Life of Refined Elegance Life in Stoodleigh offers a rare duality: the stillness of a timeless village, set against the rhythm of a world that moves quickly. Here, you can step out into rolling hills, wooded valleys and Exmoor's wild beauty, immersing yourself in a slower pace of life. Yet the energy of Exeter, the speed of Tiverton Parkway's direct trains to London Paddington, and the reach of the M5 and Exeter Airport place the capital and beyond firmly within easy access. This is not isolation, but balance - a setting where creativity flourishes. Within the village, a local pub with panoramic views and a boutique winery create gathering points that reflect both tradition and a modern, artisanal spirit. It is a community that values authenticity while embracing new ideas. Tiverton adds both practicality and character, with its pannier market, independent shops and supermarkets, while the wider region offers boutique shopping, galleries and dining that ranges from Devonshire classics to imaginative, design-led cuisine. Outdoor pursuits abound: walking, riding, cycling, fishing, golf, and sailing are all part of everyday life in this exceptional setting. Oakdale offers not just a plot, but the canvas for a life well-lived - where design, nature and connectivity meet.
