3 Bedroom Semi Detached House, Creedy Road, Crediton, EX17

On the Eastern end of the town, with a level walk to amenities is the wider area of Blagdon. Built in the 1970’s and 1980’s, it’s a popular town location for those looking to be away from the main roads yet not on a hill and there’s a mix of houses and bungalows to appeal to a range of buyers. Many of the properties have altered since new to further enhance the appeal and this produces a fantastic little sub-community in this area.

This particular property has undergone a substantial series of alterations which include extensions and remodelling to enlarge and improve on the original and now certainly makes the most of the plot. It offers 3 double bedrooms, each one benefitting from built in storage, something not found in a lot of modern houses. There’s a shower room on the first floor which could be incorporated to make an ensuite (if desired) by simply altering a door position. A useful front porch brings you into the inner hall and doors give access to a variety of rooms. There’s a living room with views to the south over the front, then a well fitted galley style kitchen with modern units and integrated appliances, also with a door to the side. To the rear is a study and a separate dining room which opens into the good-sized conservatory. There are 2 further bath/shower rooms to the ground floor too, adding to the flexibility of this home. It’s worth a note to say that should the stairs be an issue for someone, the dining room could work as a bedroom, leaving ample living space on the ground floor and with the shower room/WC facilities, it could be used as a bungalow.

Throughout, the house is presented in excellent condition and there really is little for a new owner to do except enjoy. There’s mains gas central heating and up to date uPVC double glazing making it an economical house to run.

Outside, there’s off-road parking on the driveway which leads to the attached garage and an additional timber garage is sure to be an attraction to many, providing the convenience to park under cover with ample access (should someone have a taller vehicle such as a motor home or caravan, the sellers could remove the car port roof to facilitate parking a taller vehicle). The pathway to the side gives access to the rear garden which has been well designed with large, paved seating areas and interconnecting pathways, plus an area of lawn with planted beds providing splashes of colour. There’s a good-sized workshop/summer house which would make an excellent home office or hobby room and the newly fitted utility room is part of the house and accessed from the patio at the rear with easy access to the garden and washing line – well thought out.
