Through the railings and down a pretty garden path is this charming character cottage in a tucked away position, off the road and in the sought after village of Sandford. Just 2 miles north of Crediton, Sandford offers a wonderful, friendly community which supports the local post office/stores, 2 pubs, a primary school and an active village hall. There’s sports teams too plus a regular bus service (multiple per day) to Crediton and Exeter and The Millennium path links to Crediton too, a footpath off the roads for year round walks and access. The property itself has a rendered brick façade and is tucked away in the corner of a pretty courtyard style front garden. A pathway leads to the front door (shared with neighbours) and into the house. There’s a generous living room, full of character and a separate kitchen (with white goods to be included - washing machine, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and cooker). There’s also a study or 3rd bedroom on the ground floor and then the stairs lead up to the first floor with a large master bedroom and a smaller 2nd bedroom, served by the family bathroom which includes both a bath and separate walk in shower. There’s modern, programmable electric heating (no gas in the village) and a woodburner. The front garden gives space to sit out and would be ideal for pots etc Parking is available on the streets nearby as there’s no parking with the cottage.

Listed: No Conservation Area: Yes Tenure: Freehold 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 16thCentury 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. Sandford has a highly sought after 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, that 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.

When entering Sandford from Crediton, as you start to climb Rose and Crown Hill, the cottage will be on the left immediately before the Rose and Crown Inn.
