Being only a couple of miles from Crediton, Sandford is definitely towards the top of the list for many buyers. It’s a pretty village with a square containing a well stocked community shop/post office and one of the two pubs the village offers. There’s a primary school too as well as a regular bus service connecting to Crediton and onto Exeter. It boasts tennis courts, a football pitch and team and one of the most picturesque cricket grounds in the stunning Creedy Park. One of the other notable advantages of Sandford is that it’s linked via the Millennium Path to Crediton meaning cycling or walking off-road between the two is possible all year round.

Oxford Terrace is a small row of just 5 houses and is accessed via a footpath at the front meaning the houses are off the road and benefit from lovely south facing gardens to the front. No.2 is a mid-terraced cottage which is full of character and there’s little for a new owner to do. Recently installed solar panels are a fantastic addition and the modern electric smart heating (which adapts to current temperatures) work well with the wood-burner and can be used together to reduce electricity usage – clever stuff! On the ground floor is a cosy living room with a wood-burner and views to the front over the garden. There’s also a kitchen/dining room with a range of units and built in appliances. On the first floor, there are two bedrooms served by the family bathroom with bath and shower over. There is also a useful airing cupboard to store towels etc.

Outside, the garden lies to the front (south) and is a combination of lawn, borders and raised beds. There’s a wonderful summer house, ideal as an extra room or office with electric/power and a larger shed with wood store at the end of the garden with an outside tap. This is ideal for those with bikes or outdoor equipment. The garden is a real feature of this cottage and really adds to its appeal.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.

Sandford is a civil parish and village 1½ miles north of Crediton, with a historic 12th Century Church. It has an old -world feel, with slender twisting streets, flanked by antique thatched cottages – displaying a menagerie of “Beatrix Potter” style perennial gardens. At the village heart sits a 16thCentury Post House, enshrined by creepers – this is now ‘The Lamb Inn’, an award winning pub/ restaurant; with a rustic aesthetic and cheerful spirit. Featured in ‘The Daily Mail’s – 20 Best British Country Pubs’ (2015). Across the way from here is the shop/ post office, run by the local community. Community is something that underpins every aspect of Sandford, including the local sporting events. Residents have a choice of things to do: such as joining the village cricket, tennis, football and rugby clubs. Sandford has a highly sought after primary school (known for its classic Greek-style architecture). Older ones fall within the direct catchment for Q.E.C.C. in Crediton (with an Ofsted “outstanding” Sixth Form). Sandford is linked to Crediton via a footpath, that runs through the Millennium Green on the outskirts of the village – past a wildflower meadow, herb garden, over a crystal stream, yonder tilled fields to a little copse at the town’s-edge.

 

DIRECTIONS

For sat-nav use EX17 4NG and the What3Words address is ///focus.plantings.hotspots

but if you want the traditional directions, please read on.

From Crediton, head into the village of Sandford, passing the Rose and Crown as you rise up the hill. At the top, bear right (not into the square) and you will pass Oxford Terrace on your right as you go through the bends. It’s a pedestrian only path so please park on the road nearby, or in the village car park by the village hall on Fanny’s Lane (next right after Oxford Terrace).
