4 Bedroom Bungalow for sale in Crediton

3 4 2

Situated between the Mid Devon villages of Yeoford and Hittisleigh is the small community of Binneford, just a handful of houses offering peace and quiet in a lesser known part of the county yet within easy reach of the A30 at Whiddon Down and with links to Crediton, it’s not too far off the beaten track.

Summer Corner is a small holding/equestrian property, ideal for those looking to live the country dream without winning the lottery. The house itself is a chalet style bungalow with two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and two bedrooms and a shower room on the ground floor which offers flexible arrangements depending on the buyers. The farmhouse kitchen is the heart of the home with plenty of room to cook, eat and relax with a sitting area to one end. There’s a separate living room too with a wood burner (and an endless supply of logs from the land!). There’s also a separate dining room and then a utility room to the ground floor. It has oil fired central heating. Surrounding the house are gardens of approx. an acre with lawns, a small orchard and plenty of parking through the gated entrance. There’s a selection of barns including workshops and storage barns (with power and water via an outside tap) which also provide parking and machine storage areas. Next are the stables which are in two blocks providing four stables and additional tack and feed rooms plus a concrete yard. This is ideal for those with horses as it’s close to the house (without being on top of it) and has also been used for sheep handling. Behind the house is the Olympic menage which will be a fantastic bonus for some to offer year round, structured riding/exercise opportunities. All of the land is well connected with stoned access paths making walking/driving possible at all times of year. The remaining land is split mainly into grazing paddocks with a lower access lane giving access into each independently and so grazing rotation/limitation is easily accomplished. There’s a small woodland containing a pretty walk and the whole plot is hedged/fenced for livestock.

This is a great opportunity to live the rural dream in Mid Devon and with all that’s on offer here, will be the perfect next home for someone.

YEOFORD is a popular village with a lovely community feel, in a gentle valley, 4 miles from the market town of Crediton and linked to Exeter via the Tarka-Trainline or with access to the A30 via Cheriton Bishop.  Yeoford is a busy place with yearly festivals, including “Yeofest” – described by some at the “best little beer festival in Mid Devon”.  In addition, and for those that prefer apples there is “Yeocider”.  The modern community hall hosts yoga, life drawing and crafting classes and the newly refurbished pub “The Duck” which serves great food is also home to the community shop.  The village is a great place for families with its own Primary School, a recently renewed playground and football field, the church which runs coffee mornings and a “Messy Church” plus a nursery called Sweetpea’s, which is currently rated “outstanding across all areas”.   There are lots of great countryside walks too.

HITTISLEIGH lies just north-east of Dartmoor. Although it’s a small village, those who live there, and nearby, create a welcoming and active community.  Various events and activities take place at the local village hall where there is also a community garden, in addition to this, is the Church Of St Andrews. The village's proximity to the A30 ensures quick access to Cornwall, Exeter, and the M5 motorway, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle without being too far from major destinations.
