Hillside Cottage is a hidden gem tucked behind Crediton High Street, offering a unique blend of privacy and charm with extensive woodland garden and features good size accommodation, including a spacious lounge/dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. The main bedroom boasts patio doors that open directly onto the garden, creating a peaceful retreat in your own home.
Accessed via a public footpath from the High Street through a wooden gate, visitors enter a large courtyard leading to the front door. The entrance porch welcomes you with a tiled floor, and the good-sized sitting/dining room features two large windows, radiators, laminate flooring, and stairs leading to the first floor. The kitchen features a front-facing window, freestanding cupboards with worktops, a sink with a drainer, a built-in oven, and space and plumbing for a washing machine, plus space for kitchen table and 2/3 chairs.
On the first floor, you’ll find two comfortable double bedrooms, a bathroom, and additional storage space.
Outside, the expansive garden, approximately a quarter of an acre, is a true haven filled with mature trees and shrubs, teeming with wildlife and tranquility. This secluded retreat is entirely unexpected, situated just off the busy High Street. The garden's historical significance includes the ruins of what is believed to be one of the original worker’s cottages, reflecting Crediton's industrial heritage from the wool, cloth, and shoe trades during the Industrial Revolution. Additionally, the space could present an exciting opportunity for a local forest school or nature-based business.
Hillside Cottage is part of a Grade II listing covering the properties adjoining the High Street. With an adjacent cottage having undergone significant redevelopment, there is potential for future enhancements. Notably, Hillside Cottage was approved for an extensive extension in 1991 by Mid Devon Council’s listed buildings department. The property is offered to the market with no onward chain.
Located in the vibrant and bustling market town of Crediton, Hillside Cottage is just a short walk from the town’s well-known market square—a tranquil space for locals to enjoy cafes, pubs, performances, and seasonal events, including the farmers' market. Crediton boasts excellent primary and secondary schools, convenient transport links to Exeter, and direct rail access to Dartmoor National Park. Additionally, it offers easy access to Cornwall and the beautiful beaches of Devon, along with many stunning local walking routes. With a thriving high street featuring independent shops, supermarkets, galleries, restaurants, and cafes, as well as a popular leisure centre and an independent arts centre, Crediton is indeed a jewel nestled in the Devon countryside. The town is undergoing positive and sympathetic planning and development, further enhancing its appeal.
Hillside Cottage is not just a home; it's an opportunity to enjoy a unique lifestyle in a charming Devon town. Don’t miss out—schedule a viewing today!
