This lovely cottage with late medieval origins is reputedly one of the oldest properties in Crediton.

Outside the private gardens include a summer house, studio and workshop.

Location
Crediton is an historic market town with a population of about 7,000 situated about seven miles to the northwest of Exeter. The town has a good shopping centre with a diverse range of shops running the length of the wide main street. Morrisons, Lidl and Tesco superstore are also in the town. There is excellent schooling for both primary and secondary, an eighteen-hole golf course as well as a leisure centre with swimming pool. Crediton train station is about three quarters of a mile from the town centre, on the well-known Tarka Line, which provides good service links to Exeter and countrywide.

Description
The cottage was once part of a larger property on Dean Street, surviving a series of fires in the 18th century, making it an important part of the towns heritage. Interestingly, the cottage is also the only property in its postcode which adds to its individuality. The cottage is entered from the covered alleyway which leads into the sitting room with a large stone fireplace and hearth and an inset woodburner, a window to the front, beamed ceiling and feature. The kitchen/dining room has a wonderful feel with excellent storage space and a range of traditional units, built in cupboards, tiled floor and stairs to the first floor. A door also leads to the utility with rear access. The first floor consists of an impressive main bedroom with wall and ceiling beams, a further double bedroom with Victorian fireplace plus the bathroom with lots of character. The well established and private cottage gardens are also a real feature, being terraced with seating areas plus a summer house, studio and workshop, all with electricity connected.
