5 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Crediton

4 5 2

This substantial detached home occupies an unusually generous corner plot, creating a high degree of privacy backing onto open fields. The result is a home with considerably more outside space than might normally be expected within this setting, together with five double bedrooms, flexible reception areas and a double garage.

The ground floor has a generous flow between the cream Shaker-style kitchen and dining area, with solid granite worktops, a 1.5-bowl sink, double oven, four-ring gas hob and fridge/freezer. A separate utility room houses the gas boiler, washing machine and additional sink. The main lounge spans the full width of the house and has an ornate gas fire surround, with doors leading into the conservatory. There is also a dedicated office/playroom and a further dining or music room, giving plenty of flexibility for family life and working from home.

Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to five double bedrooms. The south facing master bedroom has built-in storage and an en-suite shower room, while three further doubles overlook the front and a fifth bedroom faces the side with recessed storage. A family bathroom with shower over the bath completes the accommodation.

The gardens are a significant feature, with a large elevated patio providing an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining before steps lead down to the main lawn. The established garden includes apple and plum trees, grapevines and mature shrub borders, with a small water feature adding interest to the front. The extensive driveway provides parking for around five vehicles and leads to a detached double garage with power, lighting and two up-and-over doors.

The property also benefits from a fully owned solar installation comprising 18 standard panels alongside two PV/thermal panels designed to contribute towards hot water generation. There is no battery storage, with the solar controls and vented hot water cylinder located within the airing cupboard. Gas central heating and a mixture of UPVC and timber-framed double glazing complete the main services.

Set on the outskirts of Crediton, with a walkable bus connection into the town and onward to Exeter, this is a home where scale and flexibility are particularly hard to overlook. The combination of five double bedrooms, multiple reception spaces, extensive private gardens, generous parking, a detached double garage and owned solar installation makes it a substantial family property with plenty of room to adapt over time.

CREDITON is a vibrant market town with a bustling high street full of independent shops, eateries, and pubs. In recent years a diverse arts scene has grown to include all manner of mediums, with the performing arts making use of the town’s market square where, in the summer months, a range of activities take place. The market square is also home to the town’s twice-monthly farmer’s market. The town has an equally significant past. It was originally the first Bishopric in Devon and the imposing Parish Church of The Holy Cross now stands where once stood Devon’s first Saxon cathedral (909-1050AD). It is also the birthplace of Saint Boniface, one of the founding fathers of the Christian church in Europe. Easily commutable to Exeter and with two primary schools, a secondary school with sixth form as well as a wide range of necessary amenities, it’s clear why the town is a firm favourite with locals and relocators alike. 

DIRECTIONS : From Crediton High Street take the A377 in a Westerly direction.  At St Lawrence Green take a left turn onto Landscore and continue on Westwood Road.  At the bottom, take a left turn onto Elston Meadow and the property can be found in the far corner marked with a Helmores board.
