Just a mile or so to the South West of Crediton, set in the
rolling Mid Devon countryside is a very small collection of houses
known as Moorlake. Being so convenient to the town and only a short
journey of 15 minutes to the A30, its a peaceful and beautiful spot
which will be sure to appeal to those looking for the rural life
without being isolated. The house is detached with a large garden
to the rear and stunning rural views, in fact the surrounding
countryside abuts the boundaries of two sides so the outlook is
pretty special. The current owners have extensively remodelled the
house over their time here, both inside and out, and the property
now offers a high quality, light interior with flexibility
throughout. Its not listed and has a good level of insulation,
central heating, double glazing and even solar PV on the south
facing roof. The whole house is orientated towards the southerly
outlook with the views and of course the sun flooding the house
with light on both floors.
The welcoming entrance hall snug is double height with the
stairs rising to the first floor. The cosy living room with multi
fuel burner opens into a dining area worth noting is that this
could easily be made into a separate room if preferred. Also off
the living room is a garden room with floor to ceiling windows and
patio doors and plantation shutters to make the most of the views
whilst also managing sunshine and heat. Its a lovely room with
super views. The kitchen is well fitted with a removable central
island should a table and chairs be preferred and to the rear is a
useful utility room with larder, wall units, laundry racks and back
door. A further door opens into the large integral garage which has
an electric roller door and ample room to park and still have space
to work store. To complete the ground floor, a useful study or
bedroom 4 is at the rear and, with adjacent WC shower room, it
would make an ideal space for a dependant who wanted their own
space. On the first floor are 3 double bedrooms, all enjoying
spectacular views. Two of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes. There
is a family bathroom with walk in shower and fitted traditional
storage cupboards. The master bedroom has exposed A frame timbers,
its own ensuite and an expansive under eaves storage cupboard.
Again, the light and views are beautiful.
Outside, double gates open onto a private drive which sweeps up
to the house. This frontage has ample parking turning and areas of
lawn, paving and planted beds. To one side of the house is an
expansive woodstore and to the other, a greenhouse and decorative
rockery area. To the rear of the house is a secluded lower patio
area with steps up and a planted bed. A recently built low brick
wall gives the higher garden a safety edge with the lawns opening
up to provide ample space on the higher level. Steps are dug into
the slope for ease and safety and at the top of the garden is a
wonderful bespoke built garden room, ideal for entertaining or
relaxing after a busy day. Being elevated, the outlook is nothing
short of breathtaking and hours could be lost just enjoying the
sunshine and spectacular views. With the addition of front windows,
this could become the ideal work from home office space or artists
studio. Theres also a fenced vegetable plot in raised beds with
rabbit proof fencing and natural hedging to the boundary at the
rear.
