Shobrooke, Crediton, EX17

Just 7 miles from Exeter in a rural location this end terrace of 4 Victorian cottages is set to enjoy absolutely stunning views over rolling farmland as far reaching as Dartmoor and retains original features. With a large garden and plenty of space to the side, it is ripe for extending to create a stunning property.  Within a short distance is Raddon Top, the highest point of the Raddon Hills with some of the best views in Devon and lovely walks surrounding.

The kitchen has modern sage green shaker units with space for white goods and an oven, (there is a bottled gas feed).  There are two reception rooms, the first which would make a lovely dining room has a woodburning stove (unsure if in working order) and original built-in cupboard, the 2nd to the front with an open Victorian fireplace.

Upstairs to the front is the master bedroom with access to those wonderful views and a Victorian fireplace, the 2nd bedroom, a smaller double is to the rear.  The bathroom has a shower enclosure with electric shower, an accessible toilet and a sink. The property has been re-decorated and re-carpeted downstairs and has modern uPVC double glazing.

Outside to the front is a large gently sloping south facing garden, there is further space to the side and to the rear is a further garden with a brick shed (in some need of repair). A new parking area has been created in the summer of 2025 to provide at least 2 parking spaces.

SHOBROOKE is a village, parish and former manor – located 1½ miles north east of Crediton. The village backdrop is that of smaller hills, and brief woodland ridges, with oak and ash commonplace – interspersed by a collaged, arable landscape, of frequent colour. The name ‘Shobrooke’ is derived from the old English words ‘succa’and ‘broc’, meaning ‘Hob-goblin Brook’.  Nearby lies Shobrooke Park, a spacious country estate, open to the public, with many wizened and ancient trees standing tall. Furthermore it claims a large fishing lake, and a grassy amphitheatre – for live music on summer nights. The Red Lion Inn offers B&B facilities, a beer garden with lush country views, and excellent food and drink. Plus, it provides a welcome rest stop to those travelling between Land’s End and John O’groats. Shobrooke is in the immediate catchment area for the schools in Crediton – also home to the closest shops.

DIRECTIONS
