Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Crediton, EX17 :


A large detached family house on the edge of the village in need of updating, offering excellent potential and a very large garden of just under a half acre.

DESCRIPTION
Shippens is a large family home, well located on the edge of the large village of Morchard Bishop with its thriving community. It sits in a large plot of just under half acre of mainly lawned gardens with well established trees.

Internally, the property requires some updating, therefore if you aren’t up for a project, this one may not be for you. The rooms are large, with scope to knock through between kitchen and dining room should this be preferred, to create a modern living space. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and a bathroom, all with views out to the surrounding countryside.

Outside is a large garden which is a particular attraction to the property. There are a pair of garages and ample parking. It is worth noting that although the driveway is owned by Shippens, one of the neighbouring properties has a right of way to their garage over the driveway.

MORCHARD BISHOP is one of the larger parishes in the county lying east of the A377 Exeter / Barnstaple road and north west of Crediton, and having a population of just under 1,000.  It nestles comfortably in the very heartland of Devon, midway between the north and south coast and sitting between the two great Moors, Dartmoor and Exmoor. The village is surrounded by hilly, unspoilt countryside, yet is within easy travelling distance of Crediton (approximately 7 miles), the City of Exeter (approximately 14 miles) and Tiverton (approximately 15 miles).  The village is well served by local regular buses to Crediton and Exeter and is 3 miles from Morchard Road station on the Barnstaple to Exeter Tarka line.  It has an attractive mixture of old thatched cottages and modern houses with amenities such as the parish church, primary school, Doctors Surgery, shop/post office, garage and London Inn.  There is also a sports club, tennis court, village hall and a bowling green.

DIRECTIONS
Upon entering the village of Morchard Bishop from the A377 (Morchard Road), proceed part way up the hill and Shippens will be found on the left hand side.
