Pennicott, Shobrooke, Crediton, Devon, EX17

A generous 3 / 4 bedroom detached cottage, located in a semi-rural location on the edge of Shobrooke with superb rural views. The property requires a degree of updating but offers a versatile layout of accommodation, garden and grounds, with a car port, double garage and off street parking.

Set in a peaceful semi-rural position on the edge of the village of Shobrooke, just 2.5 miles from the market town of Crediton, this charming and characterful cottage enjoys a wonderful outlook across the surrounding Devon countryside. Believed to be of part cob and traditional construction, the property offers extensive and versatile accommodation, providing an exciting blank canvas for those looking to create a stylish country home in a particularly attractive setting.

The accommodation has a wealth of character and currently includes a generous farmhouse-style kitchen/breakfast room with an oil fired Rayburn, and an adjoining boot room, while the charming dining room features attractive wood panelling and garden views. The cosy sitting room has a stone fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, creating a welcoming focal point. A bright garden room provides an excellent additional reception space and opens directly onto a covered patio, where the superb rural views can be enjoyed.

Also on the ground floor is a useful study, which could alternatively serve as a small 4th bedroom, with an adjoining bathroom offering flexibility for a variety of requirements. To the first floor are 2 bright double bedrooms, together with a family bathroom and separate shower room. A particularly distinctive landing, featuring a vaulted ceiling and open staircase, leads to a further bedroom on the second floor, with an adjoining store room.

Outside, the property benefits from a choice of parking options, including a double garage, car port and off-road parking for two cars. A paved area provides a practical link between the parking and the cottage, leading to the rear entrance and boot room.

The south-east facing garden is a lovely feature, with areas of patio and lawn interspersed with a selection of fruit trees, together with a timber potting shed. In addition, the current owner has purchased a separate parcel of land adjoining the garden, which is included in the sale on a separate title. Backing onto open farmland, this additional land is currently used as a vegetable plot and grassed area. The property's shared septic tank is also situated on this parcel of land.

The village of Shobrooke is well placed for access to Crediton, which provides a good range of everyday amenities, shops, cafés, pubs and services, together with schooling and regular transport links. Exeter is also within easy reach by road and rail, making this an appealing location for those seeking a rural lifestyle without being too far from larger centres.

The property is offered for sale with no onward chain.
