Westwood, Crediton, EX17

Just over 10 years ago, this small development of just 5 houses was built on a former farmyard on the western edge of the town. Its location with easy access to the open countryside with miles of walks, yet close to the bus route for town and Exeter, makes it an ideal location for those seeking a smaller, modern, non estate home in Crediton. You’ll be forgiven for not recognising quite where it is but it’s off the main road, tucked away behind Westernlea and many people won’t even know it’s there. In fact, this is the first time since new that this home has come up for sale. It will suit a range of buyers, from those starting out, moving up or downsizing. The internal area is that of a 3 bedroom home so the living spaces feel comfortable and open, whilst the two bedrooms are both doubles and served by a lovely shower room on the first floor. On the ground floor, at the build stage, the layout was opened up and zoned and now provides light, sociable and cosy spaces with a living room (double doors onto the garden), dining area and a stylish kitchen with everything you need to hand. There’s even a ground floor WC too – a must for some. As you’d expect, the house is economical to run with double glazing and mains gas central heating, and being relatively new, there’s high levels of insulation too.

Outside is allocated off-road parking from the private road in and this is beside the garden and a level walk. The garden sits predominantly to the front (south) of the property and is fenced and gated, ideal for those with younger children or pets. There’s a useful lockable store to the side of the house and covered storage at the rear too plus a useful rear access (via a gate and across the rear of the neighbours) but no one has right of way over you.    

It's a lovely house, somewhat of a rarity to find and ideally positioned in the town.

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 secondary school with sixth form (Queen Elizabeth’s). In addition, it boasts a brilliant gym and leisure centre for New Year’s resolutions, three supermarkets for the weekly shop and a trading estate for any practical needs. All neatly held in a single valley.
