About Penstone
Penstone is a small hamlet in Devon, England, consisting of approximately 21 houses, situated just 1 mile from the villages of Colebrooke and Coleford. Notably located near the junction of the Exeter-Barnstaple and the freight-operated Exeter-Okehampton rail lines, there are ongoing discussions about potentially reopening the latter for passenger services, which could facilitate travel to Plymouth while bypassing the vulnerable shoreline track at Dawlish Warren. The nearest railway stations are Yeoford and Copplestone, making Penstone a point of interest for future planning applications related to transport and infrastructure in the area.
Property prices in Penstone show an average sale price of £336,328, based on 50 recent transactions recorded by HM Land Registry.
