Property description

DESCRIPTION

This substantial modern detached house is situated on a nice sized plot with attractive and private south facing gardens to the rear and side. The property enjoys a pleasant rural outlook onto a green, hillside meadow.

The flexible accommodation includes a living room with an open fire and patio doors to the garden, a kitchen with attached utility room and WC, plus a conservatory and a separate dining room. There is also a large ground floor bedroom / study with an en-suite shower room, this space would make a great annexe (using the dining room as a kitchen/living area if desired) or for someone working from home, or simply a great teenager\‘s retreat!

Upstairs the master bedroom is a particular feature with its own en-suite shower room, plus a dressing room which has been created from the 4th bedroom (and could be returned to a 4th upstairs bedroom if desired). There are two further double bedrooms, plus a family bathroom. The house has oil fired central heating and Solar PV panels which are owned outright and were installed with a 25 year feed-in tariff which started circa 2011.

To the front the house enjoys a double width driveway in front of the double garage (with internal door to utility). Immediately behind the house is a great sized decked area, ideal for outside dining, leading to a lawned area with a productive vegetable and fruit growing section.

DIRECTIONS

• From Crediton take the A3072 towards Tiverton for about 4 miles. 5
• Turn left at Coffin Tree Cross (as signposted Cheriton Fitzpaine) and follow this country lane for about a mile and a half, until arriving in the village.
• Drakes Meadow will be seen on the left as you enter the village
• Number 1a is the first house on your left

Cheriton Fitzpaine sits in a vast and hilly lowland region of Devon, 9 miles from the City of Exeter and 1.5 miles northeast of the Crediton/ Tiverton A3072 road – a route that could be argued to be one of the most stunning sunset drives in the county. The village appears timeless and has many listed cottages with the classic poured custard thatched roofs. Notably there’s also a gothic church, known for its hard edges and sharp peaks. There are two pubs, The Ring of Bells and The Half Moon Inn – both of which are unique, but equally Devonian in spirit. Cheriton Fitzpaine is a substantial size and has a multi-million pound primary school, a Doctor’s surgery and a post office. Local children are fortunate to be able to use (acquire grass stains in!) and shoot hoops in ‘Jack’s Acre’, a large playing field/ park maintained by the parish council. For foodies ‘Thornes Farm Shop’ is nearby, and is home to some exceptional quality, homegrown produce. What’s not to like?
