Dating from around 1730 and sensitively modernised to incorporate an adjoining 17th century barn, 27 Downeshead Lane is thought to be the earliest brick built building in Crediton and is a handsome double-fronted residence offering flexible accomodation. The property combines the amenities of modern living with a wealth of character features including leaded casement windows, some shuttered, and original joinery and fireplaces.
On the ground floor are two spacious reception rooms: a generous-sized drawing room with window seating, exposed wooden flooring and an open fireplace, plus a spacious sitting room with more window seating, exposed wooden flooring and a fireplace with a gas burner. A door from the sitting room gives access to a through boot room with useful storage and a cloakroom, leading to an attractive double-height kitchen/breakfast room with an exposed A frame vaulted ceiling, a range of contemporary units, stone worktops and splashbacks, modern integrated appliances, space for a good-sized table and French doors to the gardens.
The first floor provides a spacious principal bedroom with built-in storage, two further well-proportioned bedrooms, a dressing room (suitable for use as an additional bedroom or study if required) and a modern family shower room.
Local Authority: Mid Devon District Council.
Services: All mains. Gas central heating.
Council Tax: Band B.
Please note: The property is located in a Conservation Area.
Set in the Vale of the River Creedy and surrounded by gentle, rolling hills, the ancient market town of Crediton, formerly the capital of Devon, offers a wide range of day-to-day amenities including supermarkets, a traditional bustling High Street with local stores, pubs, a GP surgery, secondary schooling and a railway station on the Tarka Line (Barnstaple to Exeter).
The historic cathedral city of Exeter is just 8 miles away and has several well-regarded schools for children of all ages, one of the best universities in the country and a variety of supermarkets including Waitrose. Exeter also boasts excellent cultural and recreational facilities with many restaurants, the Princesshay shopping development, IKEA, John Lewis, David Lloyd Private Health Club, Exeter City Football Club and the prominent Rugby Stadium of the Exeter Chiefs. Exeter also has mainline railway stations on the Waterloo and Paddington lines, while Exeter International Airport provides a good range of domestic and European flights.
Forming part of the historic Buller Square courtyard to the rear, the property is approached from the side, offering private parking for at least two cars and giving access to a car port with planning permission pending for the creation of a detached garage and store. The large mature garden to the front is laid mainly to gently sloping lawn bordered by well-stocked flower and shrub beds, and features cobbled and gravelled paths, numerous seating areas and a split-level paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
