2 bed cottage for sale

Coldridge, Crediton EX17

School House was built in 1878 as the home of the head teacher for the school, now the village hall.

Coldridge is a peaceful village surrounded by open countryside with a strong sense of community and far reaching rural views, including from the property. There are numerous footpaths within a few minutes. Crediton is within easy reach for broader amenities, shopping and connections.

The property was extensively improved in 2022, including new oak engineered flooring throughout the ground floor, stripped original floorboards on the first floor, a new kitchen, creation of a new bathroom, replacement of both cloakrooms, new radiators, and redecoration throughout.

There is a useful, enclosed porch into the spacious hallway from which all the rooms are accessed. The south facing sitting room has a large stone fireplace with a wood burning stove, creating a cosy atmosphere. The kitchen/diner is also south facing and triple aspect and has its own wood burning stove. Within the kitchen area is an oil fired boiler for heating and hot water, integrated dishwasher and fridge, a Belfast sink and slate worktops, plus an electric two oven range cooker with an induction hob. There is a separate walk in pantry cupboard off the rear hallway with shelving and space for further appliances. Also at the rear is a cloakroom with a high level cistern and space and plumbing for a washing machine within matching cabinetry, also with space for a tumble drier.

The back door leads to a courtyard with a stone built shed with power and light, wood store and outside tap, plus a new oil tank installed in 2025. There is rear access via the churchyard. The stairway has a large window overlooking the church and is secondary glazed, with all other windows being uPVC double glazed. From the large landing there are two south facing double bedrooms, one with built in wardrobes, plus a cupboard housing an immersion heater. There is also a smaller south facing room which is used as an office. The bathroom is at the rear of the property and has a roll top bath, large basin and large shower enclosure. There is also a separate cloakroom upstairs.

Outside, the south facing front garden is level and enclosed with a paved seating area, lawned areas and established planting, and provides an ideal private sun trap. Although the property has no formal parking spaces, the current owner parks immediately besides the house and there is plenty of free parking around The Green.
