Property description
A fantastic stone cottage with a roof terrace in the heart of Sandford with 3 bedrooms plus study, living room and a separate dining room and kitchen – beautifully presented and ready to view.
Located just a couple of minutes’ walk from the village square with its popular Inn, this stone built cottage is ideally situated and has the added bonus of a roof terrace.
Hunters Lodge is presented in excellent order throughout benefitting from a modern kitchen, complete redecoration and new flooring throughout plus a newly fitted bathroom. There is electric central heating (not storage heaters) and an efficient multi-fuel burner to the living room.
The layout is traditional with a lovely living room with an inglenook fireplace and stove and a modern yet in keeping kitchen with two openings to the separate dining room. A useful and flexible study and utility/store complete the ground floor. To the first floor there are 3 bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom opens out onto the private roof terrace with views out over the village rooftops and catches the evening sun as the cottage faces West. Immediately to the front of the cottage is on street parking for one vehicle.
SANDFORD is a civil parish and village 1½ miles north of Crediton, with a historic 12th Century Church. It has an old -world feel, with slender twisting streets, flanked by antique thatched cottages – displaying a menagerie of “Beatrix Potter” style perennial gardens. At the village heart sits a 16th Century Post House, enshrined by creepers – this is now ‘The Lamb Inn’, an award winning pub/ restaurant; with a rustic aesthetic and cheerful spirit. Featured in ‘The Daily Mail’s – 20 Best British Country Pubs’ (2015). Across the way from here is the shop/ post office, run by the local community. Community is something that underpins every aspect of Sandford, including the local sporting events. Residents have a choice of things to do: such as joining the village cricket, tennis, football and rugby clubs. For the kids, Sandford has a highly sought after pre-school and a primary school (known for its classic Greek-style architecture). Older ones fall within the direct catchment for Q.E.C.C. in Crediton (with an Ofsted “outstanding” Sixth Form). Sandford is linked to Crediton via a footpath, then runs through the Millennium Green on the outskirts of the village – past a wildflower meadow, herb garden, over a crystal stream, yonder tilled fields to a little copse at the town’s-edge.
DIRECTIONS : From Crediton, proceed into the village and up Rose and Crown Hill. Follow the road around the right hand bend (ignoring the road into the square) and Hunters Lodge will be found straight ahead of you.
