Description

Tucked away, away from main roads yet very convenient to Crediton and Exeter is the pretty and sought after village of Sandford. With its 2 pubs, primary school, sports rec, amazing community shop and active village hall, it’s no wonder it’s high on the list for many buyers. There’s a regular bus service (several per day) linking to Crediton and the stunning millennium path provides an off-road and year round footpath between the village and Crediton.
Built in 2023/24, Weavers Way is a select development, built by Belfield Developments with a focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. The use of natural materials, wool carpets, sustainably sourced cedar and no MDF, along with high insulation values, warm core aluminium clad windows, air source heat pump and a MVHR system, all come together to produce a high quality home with low running costs. It’s within an easy walk of the village centre and its amenities and there’s a footpath for a direct connection too.
Since ownership, the current owners have made some notable changes including built in storage to the bedrooms and additional storage in the kitchen. The stunning design allows plenty of light throughout the house and the layout offers spacious rooms with a large, dual aspect kitchen/dining room (plus utility) with a large island and plenty of storage and working space. There’s a separate living room (again dual aspect) and 4 bedrooms with a master ensuite and a family bathroom. All of the fittings have been well thought out and you won’t be disappointed with the standard of this beautiful home.
Outside is a garden setting it back from the cul-de-sac road as well as driveway parking leading to the double garage with an electric double door, complete with EV charger. To the rear, the house has a southerly aspect and some simply stunning views over the village rooftops to the surrounding countryside including that of Creedy Park, home to Sandford Cricket Club. The garden has a paved seating area, accessed from the living room, kitchen/diner and the utility making it a very sociable space, then a couple of steps down to a good sized lawn and fenced for privacy and security.
Agent’s note: The question will arise of the house not being occupied for very long so it’s worth mentioning that it’s a personal reason with a desire to move areas, and no reflection on the house/development.

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 pre-school and a 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 4NT and the What3Words address is ///runways.listen.responds
but if you want the traditional directions, please read on.
Upon entering Sandford from Crediton, proceed up Rose and Crown hill, bearing around to the right before entering the square. Take the next right (opposite the church) as signposted to East Village). Weavers Way will be found just past the Village Hall on the right, just off Creedy View.
