Westernlea, Crediton, EX17

Westernlea is a town edge development which backs onto fields to the south western edge of Crediton. It’s a popular location for families with primary and secondary schools on hand, a doctors surgery and the Exeter bus route runs through the development. This particular property is at the end of a cul-de-sac so there’s no passing traffic at all and occupies a quiet and tucked away position. It’s on the market with no onward chain.

It’s a large house, having been extended to add a ground floor office or hobby room with a second staircase to a 5th bedroom (or another study). The extension is linked to the main house on the ground floor and there is separate access in from outside so with some adaptations, could be more of an annexe or even have some rental income from Airbnb!. The remainder of the house is presented in very good order with upgraded bathroom and ensuite plus a brand new kitchen/dining room which have been opened up to create a larger sociable space. As would be expected in a house of this type, there’s a separate utility room and ground floor WC and a good sized, dual aspect living room. On the first floor in the main house are 4 bedrooms, the master having a dressing area and ensuite shower room and a family bathroom with freestanding bath serves the further bedrooms.

Outside, there’s block paved parking to the front which leads to a detached double garage with electric doors, power, light and water. There’s a secure shed to the side of the garage too to provide further storage for bikes or equipment. A paved pathway to the side gives access to the rear garden which is approx. 14m x 9m with paved seating areas, lawn and a hot tub area (hot tub not included) plus steps go up to an elevated terrace with glass balustrades which enjoys the longer evenings and views to the fields behind.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.
