ENTRANCE HALL, LIVING / DINING ROOM, KITCHEN / BREAKFAST ROOM, 4 BEDROOMS, FAMILY BATHROOM, SHOWER ROOM, GARAGE, PARKING, FRONT & REAR GARDENS, OIL CENTRAL HEATING, UPVC DOUBLE GLAZED, NO ONWARD CHAIN

DESCRIPTION This modern, deceptively spacious detached 4 bedroomed bungalow is superbly located on the outskirts of the village, set well back from the road by a lawned front garden and backing onto open farmland to the rear. It is located towards the end of a sought after cul-de-sac in the popular village of Morchard Bishop.

The property is offered in good condition throughout having an impressive kitchen complete with double eye-level built-in electric oven and hob, large living / dining room, bathroom and separate shower room. It also benefits from uPVC double glazing, uPVC fascia boards & soffits and oil-fired central heating throughout.

The accommodation has been extended, which has created a bedroom and a shower room at the end of the hallway, which would be ideal for either a teenager, student or elderly relative looking for some time and space away from the principal rooms, yet still being within the property.

The fully enclosed level rear garden measures approximately 60' x 50' (18.29m x 15.24m), laid mainly to lawn with an area suitable for patio furniture overlooking the garden and the open farmland beyond, which is often used to access the sports club, or the nearby respected village school.

MORCHARD BISHOP is one of the larger parishes in the county lying east of the A377 Exeter / Barnstaple road and north west of Crediton, and having a population of just under 1,000. It nestles comfortably in the very heartland of Devon, midway between the north and south coast and sitting between the two great Moors, Dartmoor and Exmoor. The village is surrounded by hilly, unspoilt countryside, yet is within easy travelling distance of Crediton (approximately 7 miles), the City of Exeter (approximately 14 miles) and Tiverton (approximately 15 miles). The village is well served by local regular buses to Crediton and Exeter and is 3 miles from Morchard Road station on the Barnstaple to Exeter Tarka line. It has an attractive mixture of old thatched cottages and modern houses with amenities such as the parish church, primary school, Doctors Surgery, post office stores, garage and London Inn. There is also a sports club, tennis court, village hall and a bowling green.

DIRECTIONS If arriving in Morchard Bishop from the A377 main road, fork right just past the London Inn, and take the first right at the bottom of the hill into Old Rectory Gardens. Proceed up the cul-de-sac and number 17 will be seen on the left set back from the road by its front garden.
