DESCRIPTION This deceptively spacious detached family house is superbly located on the outskirts of Crediton, in the sought after residential cul-de-sac Chapel Downs Drive. The present owner has lived in the property since it was built and it is on the market for the first time in over 40 years. The High Street is within walking distance as are other amenities including Landscore primary school, QE secondary school, Chiddenbrook doctors surgery, bus stop, etc.
The house offers surprisingly spacious 4 bedroomed accommodation, together with a good sized living room, separate dining room, and recently fitted kitchen. A conservatory at the rear overlooks the beautifully presented garden. At the front there are 2 separate driveway which provide ample off road parking (with space for a trailer, boat, etc), plus a carport and garage. The front garden is well established and sets the property back from the cul-de-sac. The property benefits from oil central heating, and uPVC double glazing throughout.
Properties rarely seem to come on the market in Chapel Downs and we therefore advise an early inspection.
CREDITON is an old Mid Devon market town with a wealth of history, being situated just 7.5 miles north-west of the Cathedral City of Exeter with the M5 motorway some 3 miles further on. The town is surrounded by unspoilt farmland in an area of great natural beauty. There is a regular daily bus service to Exeter plus trains every hour to Exeter and Barnstaple and a local town bus which covers most urban areas. The town is most famous for its ancient parish church and for being the birthplace of St Boniface in 680 AD. It has excellent schooling facilities at both senior and junior levels and a sports and leisure centre incorporating a superb swimming pool. The town has an excellent selection of shops with a Morrisons and a large Tesco superstore/petrol filling station.
DIRECTIONS From the centre of Crediton proceed towards the top end of the High Street, and straight over the traffic lights by the green into Western Road. Proceed along this road taking the first right hand turning into Alexandra Road. Go up the short hill and turn left into Chapel Downs. Take the next left into Chapel Downs Drive, and number 5 will be seen on the left hand side.
