Property description

Spacious detached period residence set in picturesque village location, excellent 4 bedroomed accommodation full of old world character.

DESCRIPTION This wonderfully appointed Grade II Listed detached period residence is very pleasantly located in the picturesque mid Devon village of Morchard Bishop, within a short walk of nearby amenities including the local shop, primary school, and public house, the London Inn.

The property offers excellent and spacious 4 double bedroomed accommodation full of old world character with many interesting period features including a wealth of exposed beams and lintels, plus a massive inglenook fireplace with bread oven in the living room. The house has been subject to a major programme of modernisation in recent years with improvements including: the conversion of the adjoining barn into a stunning dining hall with vaulted ceiling and spiral staircase leading to a galleried study, a bespoke hand-built fitted kitchen with polished granite worktops, refitted shower and bathroom, and the whole property has been tastefully decorated throughout.  There is a variety of floor coverings from carpet, to oak, and flagstone style natural slate in the kitchen.

Outside, there is a beautifully landscaped garden having spacious tarmac parking areas, with steps up to a large split-level patio with built-in barbecue areas, pergola, water feature, and lawned area.

MORCHARD BISHOP is one of the larger parishes in the county lying east of the A377 Exeter / Barnstaple road and north west of Crediton, and having a population of just under 1,000.  It nestles comfortably in the very heartland of Devon, midway between the north and south coast and sitting between the two great Moors, Dartmoor and Exmoor. The village is surrounded by hilly, unspoilt countryside, yet is within easy travelling distance of Crediton (approximately 7 miles), the City of Exeter (approximately 14 miles) and Tiverton (approximately 15 miles).  The village is well served by local regular buses to Crediton and Exeter and is 3 miles from Morchard Road station on the Barnstaple to Exeter Tarka line.  It has an attractive mixture of old thatched cottages and modern houses with amenities such as the parish church, primary school, Doctors Surgery, award-winning village shop, garage and London Inn.  There is also a sports club, tennis court, village hall and a bowling green.

DIRECTIONS    Follow the A377 from Crediton towards Barnstaple for approximately 6 miles and turn right at Morchard Road (just before The Devonshire Dumpling Inn) and proceed for 2 miles.  On entering Morchard Bishop proceed past The London Inn and fork left into Fore Street.  Wisteria House will be found at the bottom of the hill on the right.
