A beautiful, detached country property set in lovely gardens and grounds to about half an acre, located in a most picturesque part of the countryside just 1 mile from the popular town of Crediton. It faces South and enjoys some of the finest views in this part of the county, looking over adjoining farmland with the rolling hills of Dartmoor in the distance.

The unlisted cottage, which is believed to date back to Elizabethan times, offers spacious four double bedroom family accommodation (with 2 staircases giving much flexibility) having been tastefully decorated and is very well presented throughout. It also benefits from up-to-date comforts, with a wonderful modern bathroom, an en-suite to the ground floor bedroom, oil-fired central heating and uPVC cottage style double glazed windows. There is the option to use as one large family home or indeed to use as two, with an annexe to the main home or to rent out part as a holiday let.

The main entrance is through a 5-bar gate with a long tarmac driveway giving a real "country house" feel. There are spacious areas of parking for numerous vehicles plus ample space for a caravan, trailer or boat, and a detached double garage.

The gardens and grounds extend to about half an acre and are a particularly delightful feature of the property as they take full advantage of the magnificent panoramic views, which are literally uninterrupted for miles as can be seen in the photos. They are extremely well established, and entirely encompass the property. There are well kept areas of lawn interspersed by trees, colourful flowerbeds and shrubs, plus a small wooded area giving shelter and privacy, a decked ?viewing? area has a timber-built bar for evening drinks and to the northern edge vegetable beds are in place. There?s a hot tub too with the most incredible views out over the countryside.
