Tucked away, off the village road at the end of its own drive is this substantial bungalow set in approx. Quarter acre gardens. Its appeal will be wide with ample living space both inside and out, it will attract couples and families looking to enjoy all it has to offer. The village, just 10 minutes south west of Crediton, has a very good gastro pub – The Duck, plus a primary school (bus to secondary) and a train station linking through to Exeter, plus the A30 at Cheriton Bishop is only 10 minutes to the south opening up road networks for the whole county and beyond. Due to its easy links, Yeoford supports a good community and contains a diverse range of properties.
The approach is via a private drive (initially the neighbour has a row) which opens into the parking area to the front complete with a single garage to the side. The gardens (down a couple of steps) wrap around the property and provide ample lawns, planted beds and seating areas and the removal of some unwanted trees has led to a more open and light garden. There’s certainly enough garden to keep most occupied. Internally, due to its size, there are plenty of options on how the spaces are used. A useful entrance provides room for coats and shoes and the laundry/boiler room is on hand too – ideal for busy households. There’s a great sized kitchen which opens into the dining area and then a large conservatory/garden room over looking the garden provides further entertaining or relaxing space. There’s a good sized living room with fireplace and then at the rear, the current layout gives five bedrooms (one with a small ensuite) and the whole property is served by a family bathroom and separate WC. It’s been well maintained and has oil fired central heating with an open fire, plus solar pv’s with a good feed in tariff can be transferred to a new owner* for lower bills/income.
*Agents’ notes: The property is next to a very small village primary school although the gardens are on the opposite side of the property. There are leased solar panels on the property (ask agents for more details) which can be passed onto the next owner. If you require a mortgage, please check with your broker/lender before offering.
