3 bedroom semi-detached house

To be so close to the town centre and everything it has to offer is a real bonus. Combine that with the feeling of being just out of the hustle and bustle, in a house with lots of potential and a great plot, then it’s a winning recipe. Located on Searle Street, the house is set back from the road and is being offered to the market for the first time in over 30 years. It’s clearly been well looked after and although dated, this gives the opportunity to create a wonderful family home in a great location. Some of the nearby houses have extended into the loft or there’s room at the rear too and there’s the potential to create off-road parking at the front. It already has uPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating. There are original features such as fireplaces and built in storage which add to the character. Some may choose to explore opening up the kitchen/dining room or even pushing out to the rear to create a larger family space opening onto the garden. The hallway is certainly a feature and leads to the living room on the front of the house and then the kitchen and dining room at the rear. Across the back is a conservatory style garden room with a shower room too. On the first floor are 3 bedrooms and the second bathroom.

Outside is a front garden setting it back from the road with a wall adding privacy and a pretty, gated access. As mentioned previously, many of the neighbours have created off-road parking in the front and this would be possible (subject to permissions) and would certainly add value and convenience. There is a side gate leading to the rear garden which is approx. 25m x 7m so it’s a great size, plus it’s west facing so gets the afternoon and evening sun. At the bottom of the garden is a large workshop/store, ideal for those with hobbies or even work from home, plus it would work for storage of bikes/boards etc.

The property is very clean and well looked after, yes it’s dated but there is huge potential for it in this great location.

CREDITON : An ancient market town, with a contemporary feel – only a short, 20-minute drive NW from the city of Exeter. 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). 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.
