End terrace house for sale in Mill Street, Crediton EX17

In the late Victorian era, more houses were being built and Crediton was no exception. The red brick houses of East Street and Mill Street were shaping the Eastern part of the town and just off Mill Street, Oxford Terrace was built. Two rows of terraced houses, facing into a central access with pathways and small gardens, the houses can only be accessed on foot making them off the main road. Predominantly two up, two down houses when they were built, many have undergone changes with loft conversions and wall removal but this one stands apart with the space it offers inside and out. There’s an open plan reception room (formerly two rooms) plus the kitchen, four bedrooms on the first floor and a bathroom to the ground and first floor plus a great garden with outbuilding.

The house itself is brick under a slate roof with uPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating. It’s a spacious and comfortable house and although it’s not necessary, many people may choose to alter the first floor layout (by creating a corridor through bedroom two and changing the door to the ensuite) which would create a separate first floor bathroom and four independent bedrooms as currently you have to use bedrooms to access others but this is a relatively cheap and worthwhile change that could be made. On the ground floor, the living/dining room has been opened up into a single larger room and there’s a lovely kitchen to the side too with plenty of fitted units. The main bathroom is on the ground floor but as mentioned, an additional facility could be altered on the first floor. Rare for these cottages isn’t just the number and size of the rooms, but also the outside space. Most cottages have a small “allotment” style garden, often away from the house and although this house also has this, it’s also got it’s own level and secure courtyard garden to the rear. Ideal for those with children or pets, you can open the back door and it’s a safe space with no access except through the house. The courtyard is a great space and there’s an additional outside store too.

Agents’ Note: There is no vehicle access to Oxford Terrace and so please park nearby on the street or short term in Morrisons carpark.
