3 Bedroom End of Terrace House, Park Street, Crediton, EX17

This is one of those properties that you wouldn’t really know is there unless you were looking for it! Located on one way Park Street it’s brilliantly positioned  - you can be right in the heart of the town within 2 minutes’ walk. If you combine this with the fact that it is off the road, has a garden, is full of character and also has 3 bedrooms, you’ll see why this house is going to be popular.

Built of cob and stone, the cottage probably dates back to the 15th century and has a tiled roof. With a backdrop of the hillside, it’s a lovely position and the garden sits predominantly to the side of the house with patio area, lawn and planted beds. There is a fantastic, raised seating area from which to enjoy looking out over the rooftops on a summer evening. The garden is private, being elevated from the path in front.

The “front” door is actually on the back of the house, giving some extra privacy and interest. There’s a useful entrance hall with storage cupboards and then the well fitted kitchen which would have been a later addition to the original property. There is a small breakfast table in here too. The main living space is made up of a large room with areas for living room and dining space. With exposed beams and a gas stove, it’s a lovely room year round. The stairs rise up to the first floor with the 3 bedrooms and the bathroom.   

There is no parking with the cottage but there is on street parking nearby on Park Street, Park Road, Union Road or various streets nearby.

Agents’ note. There is a small area of flying freehold over the neighbour on part of bedroom 3 and part of the bathroom. If you’d like to know more, please ask the agents. It is a small area and shouldn’t affect mortgage lending but buyers should be aware and make their own checks.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.

Set in the Vale of the River Creedy, amongst gentle, rolling hills and verdant pastures. Sincerely picture postcard. Once the capital of Devon, Crediton is famed for its inspiring sandstone church and for being the birthplace of Saint Boniface in 680 AD. Its high street is a vibrant place, abuzz with trade –artisan coffee shops, roaring pubs, a farmers’ market and bakeries, jam-packed with mouthwatering delights. For those commuting it has hassle free transport links into Exeter and for schooling a prestigious community college (Queen Elizabeth’s) – with an Ofsted “outstanding” sixth form. In addition, it boasts a brilliant gym & leisure centre for New Year’s resolutions, two supermarkets for the weekly shop and a trading estate for any practical needs. All neatly held in a single valley.
