Churchill Drive, Crediton, EX17

Converted in 2020, this thoughtful development reshaped the town’s apartment offering. Before then, most conversions were centred on the High Street above the shops, but this project stepped away from the bustle and reimagined the entire building as a collection of modern, stylish homes. With one, two and three bedroom layouts originally available, the development brings contemporary convenience together with the charm of a character conversion, all finished to a good standard. With communal gardens and allocated parking, it offers an easy way to enjoy everything the town has to hand while still feeling pleasantly tucked away.

This particular apartment sits on the ground floor of Building One and enjoys a rare extra touch for this type of home, a private garden to the east side with its own pedestrian access from the footpath. It is a brilliant option for first time buyers, downsizers or anyone looking for a strong rental investment. A secure communal entrance with intercom leads into a well cared for lobby and through to the property itself. Inside, a central hall connects all rooms, including the immaculate open plan kitchen, dining and living space. The kitchen is well fitted with integrated appliances, the layout is sociable and inviting, and the whole room opens directly onto the garden. Everything has been well designed and beautifully maintained so a new owner can simply move in and enjoy it.

There are two comfortable double bedrooms, both served by a smart upgraded shower room. The apartment has mains gas central heating and double glazing, as well as its own allocated parking space with visitors parking available. The private garden, for the sole use of this apartment, is larger than expected, level and offers wonderful outdoor space that is rarely found with modern flats. Residents can also make use of the wider communal grounds.

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.
