Property description

Dunns is a detached cottage with origins as far back as the 18^th century. It has been greatly enlarged and updated over the years and now offers excellent family accommodation, all set in a large garden with an open outlook over the adjoining countryside.

The property has been well updated by the current owners in a sympathetic way ensuring the old and new integrate seamlessly. There is plenty of character with original features and a large fireplace, a sociable kitchen/dining room arrangement and a great study/library area in the centre of the house. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms (could be 4 if the large 2^nd bedroom was divided) with bedroom 1 having a modern en suite shower room. There is part timber double glazing, part secondary glazed and oil fired central heating throughout. It is worth noting that Dunns is not listed.

Outside is a large South facing garden, mainly lawned and with ample parking area. It may be possible subject to permissions to erect a carport/garage should it be required. The garden adjoins open farmland and gently slopes to the boundary. Adjacent to the property is a garage and further garden which has permission for a dwelling. This can be purchased by separate negotiation and could be used as it is, as a garage and garden or to build another property for a use by Dunns or as a development project, further details with Helmores.

CHERITON FITZPAINE is a parish and substantial village approximately one and a half miles north-east of the Crediton/Tiverton A3072 road. It is a typical Mid Devon village with traditional white cottages and thatched roofs. There are 2 pubs, a post office/store and a doctors surgery. A brand new multi million pound primary school opened in October 2010 for 125 local children. The city of Exeter is about 9 miles away and the town of Crediton 5 miles with its shopping centre and schooling facilities.
