Hobbs Way, Bow, EX17

3 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Crediton

2 3 1

One of Mid Devon’s larger villages, Bow (pronounced as in Bow and Arrow) has a lot going on. A thriving community with a surprising amount of clubs and societies plus the advantage of a great shop, village pub, primary school (buses to secondary schooling), sports field, medical centre, garden centre with café and of course a regular bus service to Crediton/Exeter and Okehampton.

4 Hobbs Way is located in a tucked away position, away from main roads and is on a quiet residential no-through-road. Being in a slightly elevated position, there is plenty of light and views over the surrounding countryside.

The property has been improved by the current owners to include energy saving measures such as building insulation, uPVC double glazing throughout and solar pv panels on the roof to reduce energy consumption. The external of the house has been rendered in a coloured render so does not require painting.

The property offers open plan living to the ground floor with the addition of a conservatory style extension to the kitchen giving year round dining/living space with doors opening onto the garden.

The large living room area has ample space for large furnishings, plenty of daylight and a fireplace with a wood-burning stove which heats the whole property. The kitchen is well lit with plenty of daylight as well as being well equipped with plenty of storage space, the conservatory adds bright additional living space all year round.

On the first floor there is a landing area leading to three bedrooms, two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, which is currently being used as an office. Bedroom 1 is dual aspect. There is also a modern bathroom with bath/shower.

Outside, there is a small front bed setting it back from the road and then a driveway to the side providing off-road parking which leads to the garage with electric roller door.  The garage has been divided to give storage space at the front and access through the side gives entry to a useful room created from the remaining garage. This has previously been used as a home office but more recently as a gym. The rear garden is easy to maintain with low maintenance artificial grass, with a paved area leading to the conservatory which is ideal for entertaining during the warmer months.  There is a timber summer house. The current owner is expecting to remove this but it can be left in situ upon request.

Agents’ Note: The solar panels are owned outright and generate electricity for the home, the solar installation attracts a feed in tariff rebate of over £450 last year which the current owner uses to offset against heating costs.

There are also electric storage heaters throughout the property which were replaced 8 years ago, so it is possible to heat the property making use of the lower night time electricity tariff if preferred.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.
