Kennerleigh, Crediton, EX17

Chapters is a south facing and beautifully refurbished Grade II Listed detached cottage set in a tucked away position in this pretty Mid-Devon village, just a very short walk to the community stores with post office and the historic church and just 4 miles from the market town of Crediton.

The cottage has undergone extensive improvements in the last 10 years and a wonderful timber clad extension was added with an impressive glass corridor connecting the old and the new.

The whole ground floor has lovely slate floor tiles and the kitchen diner extension is particularly impressive with the use of ash and oak for the worktops and units, plus a superb centre island with smooth slate worktop. There’s an inset Belfast sink, two sets of double doors to the gardens and space for a range style gas cooker (available by negotiation). The large living room is set in the original cottage and features a large inglenook fireplace. There is also a utility room with WC, further sink and gas combi-boiler providing hot water and central heating to the property (LPG bottles).

Heading up the staircase (enjoying the double height glass wall) the first floor offers three double bedrooms with a lovely en-suite shower room to the master and a separate family bathroom with shower & screen over the bath. The second bedroom has a great feature window which looks internally across the staircase to the kitchen area. In total the accommodation reaches 126sqm / 1,365sqft.

Outside the property has mature gardens to the front giving the cottage much privacy, plus a 25m / 81ft garden to the side/rear. The main garden is level and largely lawned, with an attractively paved seating area immediately off the kitchen. To the bottom of the garden is a detached garden office / studio with numerous power points, internet, double glazed doors and window and an electric heater with off-road parking to the side.

KENNERLEIGH is a village truly undisturbed by modernisation, sitting in an exquisite and rural part of Devon, on the verges of a shady, forested valley. It lies on the road to Black Dog and Thelbridge, only 4 miles north of the popular market town of Crediton. Kennerleigh has a traditional style village shop/ post office – that stocks a diverse range of items and local produce. In addition, it features a wonderful example of a Norman church. A short drive away finds the larger village of Sandford, and one of finest pubs in the county; The Lamb Inn – with many accolades, mouth watering food and ales (and an open fire with the odd Jack Russell trotting about). For a modern selection of facilities Crediton is the place, with superb schools (both primary and secondary), a regular farmers market, a leisure centre, a host of interesting shops and two supermarkets.

DIRECTIONS: For Sat-Nav use EX17 4RS, upon reaching the shop turn down the driveway & Chapters is found along on your right, for viewings, park in the village hall carpark.
