A quirky ‘Hobbit’-style house has gone on the market for £235,000.
Built into a hillside, the property was once used as a pharmacy after it was constructed in the early 90s, but has since been converted into a two-bedroom home.
With a circular design and a ‘turret’ poking out, only a small portion of the property is clearly visible from the road – with the larger part of it camouflaged and almost entirely concealed by grass.

Called Brook Lodge, and described as a ‘detached bungalow’, the listing suggests it could be converted to include two bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus an open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, which opens onto gardens.
Entering into the circular part of the house, the property currently features shelves for storage – presumably left from its former use as a pharmacy – and a door marked ‘Consultation Room’.
From there, the slightly underground main part of the home opens into what would be the kitchen and living space, which appears largely disused currently, with the pharmacy moving locations.
A small bathroom is also currently in place in the Crediton, Exeter home, as reported by Luxury Property News.
Described as a “development opportunity”, the pad comes with planning permission for conversion into a two-bedroom dwelling, and the listing says there are “mainly internal works to complete”.
The listing, held by Helmores, reads: “This is an amazing opportunity to create your unique mini-Grand Design in a great location that will appeal to many.
“The suggested layout could be altered to suit (STP) and it may be possible to extend but planning permission would need to be sought.
“Offers are invited for the freehold purchase of the site with vacant possession.
“Its unique design is sure to attract a range of buyers from occupiers to developers.”
