Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Crediton, EX17 :

A real hidden gem! Located within the town yet with plenty of privacy and flexible 5 bedroomed accommodation, gardens, parking, large workshop and hydrotherapy covered Jacuzzi.

DESCRIPTION

The Cottage is a most unique town residence believed to date back to approx. 1850 and was originally the stables and latterly the coachman’s cottage to the adjoining substantial Georgian mansion house (formerly known as Palace Villa and now having been split into 2 large residences - The Beehive and Courtlans). It is situated in a quiet, extremely secluded location just off Old Tiverton Road and yet is remarkably convenient for the High Street and amenities and is on the market with no onward chain.

Internally the property is interesting and flexible with 5 bedroomed accommodation over two floors with sloping roof. It benefits from gas fired central heating, two bathrooms plus a ground floor WC and an open plan living room/conservatory which can be utilised all year round. Should more living space be required, the layout does lend itself to home workers or creating another living room. The property could, with a little work and permission, include an annex with separate door. In 2013, the windows in the whole property were replaced with brand new uPVC double glazing and the remainder of the 10 year guarantee in still in place.

The garden is a fantastic feature of the property, being extremely well presented and maintained by the present owners, having areas of level lawn, paved patio seating areas as well as a “Secret Garden, ideal for BBQ’s and campfires! There are plenty of colourful flower beds and further hidden seating areas. A large workshop could be used for a variety of things including home office, workshop or even changing rooms. Included in the sale is a Hydrotherapy Jacuzzi which has a private position with decking and lighting and a cover making it ideal for year round use. The garden has an external electric supply. There is a tarmac and gravel driveway leading up through the trees to the property and also a separate woodland footpath to Old Tiverton Road.

CREDITON An ancient market town, with a contemporary feel – only a short, 20-minute drive NW from the city of Exeter. Set in the Vale of the River Creedy, amongst gentle, rolling hills and verdant pastures. Sincerely picture postcard. Once the capital of Devon, Crediton is famed for its inspiring sandstone church and for being the birthplace of Saint Boniface in 680 AD. Its high street is a vibrant place, abuzz with trade –artisan coffee shops, roaring pubs, a farmers’ market and bakeries, jam-packed with mouthwatering delights. For those commuting it has hassle free transport links into Exeter and for schooling a prestigious community college (Queen Elizabeth’s) – with an Ofsted “outstanding” sixth form. In addition, it boasts a brilliant gym & leisure centre for New Year’s resolutions, two supermarkets for the weekly shop and a trading estate for any practical needs. All neatly held in a single valley.
