Key information
Features and description
- Pretty 2 bedroom semi-detached cottage
- Ideal for public transport and local shop
- Living room plus kitchen/diner
- First floor bathroom & 2 double bedrooms
- Lovely gardens including lawn, veggie plots, timber buildings and patios

Very pretty cottage on the edge of the village, ideal for public transport and local shop, with 2 bedrooms, gardens and a useful garage/office.
The main village of Lapford sits elevated above the river valley, this pretty semi-detached cottage is on the edge of the village, close to the transport links of the train and bus services and within a short walk to the small supermarket/petrol station - ideally positioned for those not wishing to be isolated. The property is slate roofed and not listed and has oil fired central heating.
A small extension was built onto the back in the past which gives a larger kitchen/dining room opening out onto the rear garden. The living room is cosy with views over the front and a woodburner. On the first floor are two double bedrooms and a good sized bathroom.
Outside, the property has a driveway in from the village road (neighbours have vehicle access on the drive too) and a beautiful garden greets you at the front. The garden extends to approx. 25m x 15m and is a mix of lawns, pathways and veggie plots, plus a variety of timber buildings, ideal for storage or a garden get away! There is parking for 2 cars and the detached garage has been split into a store (ideal for bikes etc) and then a utility room or home office with WC and plumbing/electric. This could be reverted by a new owner if a full garage is preferred. A path to the side gives access to the rear garden, well established with hedging and fencing and this provides a further seating area, being mainly paved with planted borders.
Please see the floorplan for room sizes.

LAPFORD is a large village, beyond Morchard Road on the A377 9 miles from Crediton and 16 miles from the City of Exeter. Like most Devon parishes, its not far from a lovely collection of trees Eggesford Forest is just up the way, a regal coniferous plantation that plays host to variety of creatures including adders, butterflies, buzzards and woodpeckers (and badgers!). The village itself has a primary school with an excellent Ofsted report, sizeable playing fields (with a football pitch and kid-friendly playground) and a busy pub The Old Malt Scoop Inn, once a 16th Century coaching inn which now offers an e la carte dining experience, using only the best local produce.
