Cheriton Bishop, a sought after village just outside of Dartmoor
National Park is a popular destination for buyers with its range of
amenities and a village community thats well connected. Just a
couple of minutes from the village is the A30, allowing easy access
to Exeter and west to Cornwall. Its also on the edge of the
stunning Dartmoor National Park, making it an ideal base from which
to enjoy Devon. The village itself has a well regarded health
centre, primary school, shop post office and pub and the nearest
town of Crediton is approximately 6 miles away for more amenities
and secondary schooling.
The cottage has been rented out for a few years and is now
offered for sale with no onward chain, having been well maintained
and recently updated by the current owners so theres little to do.
Its cob construction under a slate roof and not listed so it
benefits from modern uPVC double glazing which certainly helps with
both heat and sound insulation. Theres a mixed heating system of
both an electric boiler for some radiators and modern electric
heaters, plus a working wood burner in the living room. At the
front of the cottage is an entrance porch giving a buffer to the
front for those with younger children pets and a useful study or
occasional bedroom 3 which is a real bonus room at this price
point. The living room has a recent neutral carpet and there is an
original stone fireplace with the wood burning stove and double
doors lead to a second side porch. The kitchen is at the back,
fitted with base and wall units and a bathroom completes the ground
floor. On the first floor are the 2 double bedrooms.
Outside, although technically the cottage doesnt have a garden
or parking, there is some outside space owned by the cottage and it
may be possible to utilise this for a small courtyard or even
parking stp . The area to the side left of the cottage is part of
it, as is a strip across the back and there is sole ownership and
no official right of way for anyone else over this land. On street
parking is readily available locally.

CHERITON BISHOP is a village situated at the
northern borders of Dartmoor National Park between the City of
Exeter and the town of Okehampton. The farmlands adjoining Cheriton
undulate with true Devon character, gradually rising towards
Dartmoor, where altitudes creep to heights in excess of 1000 ft
above sea level. The village is ideally placed for hassle free
access to the A30 dual carriageway, a direct injection into Exeter
10 miles and a great route west to Cornwall. Facilities include, a
parish church, two prosperous inns, a primary school and a Doctors
surgery. Fancy sloshing a drink around and wiggling to a beat? For
music lovers Cheriton hosts two annual festivals at the Woodleigh
Coach House The Gig in The Garden and Jam in June, the perfect
opportunity to see some talented local acts.
