Description
Tucked away on the outskirts of Crediton and backing onto open fields, this impressive steel-frame barn conversion was completed in 2019 and offers almost 3,000 sq ft of accommodation within approximately half an acre. Built by a local builder to high a high specification, it combines a contemporary layout with natural materials including solid oak beams, oak window sills and oak veneer doors, creating a home with both scale and character.
The ground floor is arranged around a generous full-depth lounge, where a 9kW multi-fuel stove sits on a slate hearth along with underfloor heating and four-panel bi-fold doors open onto the front garden and patio. A further reception room with patio doors to the garden, a brick fireplace and gas fire provides useful flexibility, while the large kitchen combines cream high-gloss cabinetry with quartz worktops, a Neff double oven and induction hob, integrated dishwasher and full-height fridge and freezer. Underfloor heating runs through the kitchen, while the spacious utility room has matching dark green Shaker-style units, space for laundry appliances and an additional fridge-freezer.
A large double bedroom on the ground floor overlooks the rear garden and town and has its own en-suite shower room, making this floor particularly flexible for guests or family members. The entrance hall leads to an oak staircase and gallery landing, with a downstairs WC and useful storage completing the ground-floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the impressive master bedroom suite has floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed oak beams and countryside views, together with a generous en-suite shower room and particularly large walk-in wardrobe. A second bedroom occupies a separate wing beneath a pitched roof with glass and velux sensor windows along with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the garden and countryside. There is also another double bedroom to the front and a large family bathroom with a substantial bath and separate shower.
Outside, the property is approached via a shared drive before continuing along its own private lane. A large brick-paved parking area provides space for at least eight vehicles, while the grounds include a workshop and storage area, covered veranda and log store. The main garden is fully fenced, providing a secure space for children and pets, with the property enjoying a tucked-away position overlooking open fields. In all the grounds extend to just under half an acre,
The property benefits from UPVC double glazing, mains gas and water, gas central heating with additional underfloor heating zones, and private septic tank drainage. With its generous accommodation, flexible bedroom arrangements, substantial parking and peaceful edge-of-town setting, this is a distinctive home offering a truly unique opportunity.

CREDITON is a vibrant market town with a bustling high street full of independent shops, eateries, and pubs. In recent years a diverse arts scene has grown to include all manner of mediums, with the performing arts making use of the town’s market square where, in the summer months, a range of activities take place. The market square is also home to the town’s twice-monthly farmer’s market. The town has an equally significant past. It was originally the first Bishopric in Devon and the imposing Parish Church of The Holy Cross now stands where once stood Devon’s first Saxon cathedral (909-1050AD). It is also the birthplace of Saint Boniface, one of the founding fathers of the Christian church in Europe. Easily commutable to Exeter and with two primary schools, a secondary school with sixth form as well as a wide range of necessary amenities, it’s clear why the town is a firm favourite with locals and relocators alike.
