Bary Close, Cheriton Fitzpaine, EX17

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Cheriton Fitzpaine, 4 Bary Close is one of those homes that quietly gets everything right. Backing onto protected land known locally as Jack’s Acre, it enjoys a lovely open outlook while still being firmly part of the village.

Since being purchased, the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of improvements, transforming it into a comfortable, efficient and well finished home that’s ready to move straight into.

Inside, the space feels light and open. The living room is a great size, centred around a large picture window that draws in the view. The kitchen has been replaced with a modern Wren design, complete with updated plumbing, integrated appliances and even a boiling water tap, giving it a clean, contemporary feel.

There are four bedrooms, (One of which could be used as a dining room if desired), with the main rooms enjoying the outlook to the rear, all served by a stylishly updated shower room with new fittings throughout.

A lot of the work here sits behind the scenes but makes a big difference day to day. The house has been fully rewired, all floors lifted and insulated, and underfloor heating installed throughout, powered by an air source heat pump. New flooring, including LVT and carpets, runs through the property, tying everything together. There’s also a new hot water system with immersion and solar-ready setup, alongside an EV charger outside.

The former garage has been converted into a useful office or hobby space with its own electrics, adding another layer of flexibility, while the loft has been partially boarded with added joists for storage.

Outside, the gardens wrap around three sides and are a real feature. The rear garden is west facing and backs directly onto the protected field, giving a sense of space and privacy. It’s mainly laid to lawn with established planting including fruit trees, roses and wisteria, along with a greenhouse. To the side, the garden continues with further planting and space to enjoy, while to the front there is additional lawn which could offer potential for more parking if required, subject to permissions.

A long driveway provides parking for several vehicles and the front of the garage is used as a store.

Overall, this is a well thought through home where the hard work has been done, combining a great position with modern efficiency and a clean finish throughout.

Additional info: Further works are underway, including chimney repairs and a new roof to the former garage/office, giving peace of mind for a new owner.
