Woodbank is an architect-designed individual property built in1985 of attractive red brick.It offers versatile family accommodation with 4 bedrooms, built into a bank and arranged over three floors. At 1748 sq ft plus a garden building (85 sq.ft) it is spacious yet of compact design.

The back of the house – where most of the living accommodation is situated - faces south.Situated in a central position, set back from the road and backing onto the garden of a Grade 1 listed building. It is therefore convenient yet quiet. It is only 1ml from J28 of the M5, on the other side of the town so away from the noise of the motorway.

It has undergone extensive renovation and improvement in the last two years. The windows are wood-framed double-glazing and there is gas central heating throughout. To the front there is parking for 3 (4 at a push) cars. It offers exceptional value relative to the many ‘new-builds’ in the town, being substantially constructed and with many ‘extras’ included in the price.

It is within walking distance of a primary school and there is a good range of schools in the area including independent schools at Tiverton and Exeter. Exeter 14 miles, Tiverton Parkway Station 5 miles, Tiverton 5 miles, Taunton 19mls.
