Sandford is a popular place to love due to its characterful look, proximity to Crediton and Exeter and the fact it has so much going on. With a primary school, community shop, two pubs, an active community hall and regular bus services, its a connected village that retains its own character and history. This Grade II Listed property was converted a few years ago from the original church vestry and retains a lot of the original character. More recently, the current owner has further updated the kitchen to provide a functional yet in keeping open plan space which benefits from integrated appliances and is well fitted to the space. There is a wonderful large stone fireplace with a wood burning stove which is the feature of the main room plus the solid wood spiral staircase that rises to the first floor bedroom. In addition, there is a shower room off the main living space too. Hidden in the floor of the living space is a trap door giving access to a fixed ladder down to the lower ground floor. Ideal for use as a store or office, it also has a small door to the street outside so you dont have to use the ladder! . Theres plenty of built in storage down here and if it was being used as an Airbnb, an ideal place to keep locked for stores and supplies even bikes etc.

Although there is no garden or parking, the village is surrounded by country walks. Theres also a park and playing field and ample parking in the village car park free .
