3 Bedroom Bungalow

This detached bungalow takes up a nice position within the village with some lovely views and sitting nicely within its own corner plot. The accommodation is well-proportioned and includes three double bedrooms, with the first and second bedrooms enjoying the elevated views. The naturally light living room enjoys an open fire and there is a separate dining room, plus the kitchen with an electric hob and oven. The bathroom has a cast iron bath with shower over, with the WC found separately. The whole property benefits from oil fired central heating and uPVC double glazing (except the rear door/porch). There are also 17 solar panels which offer free/reduced cost electricity in daylight, there is no financial outlay to the property owner and all power produced is available to be used for free or subsidise the power consumed during the day – With good timing this offers a fantastic discount from your electricity monthly bills! Heading outside you find a nice long driveway leading to the garage with light and power. To the rear is access to the cellar which was used as a workshop for many years. The gardens wrap around the bungalow nicely with areas of lawn, pretty beds and borders, plus a good-sized vegetable plot.

Turn right signposted Lapford and proceed up the hill from Lapford Cross for about half a mile and turn right into Highfield (before reaching the centre of the village). The bungalow is found down on the right. 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, it’s 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, sizable 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 à la carte dining experience, using only the best local produce
