Orchard

Sutton Orchard is a stunning development consisting of five impressive and substantial luxury eco-country homes situated in a picturesque and private location providing a mini country estate feel in the heart of rural Mid-Devon near Crediton. 

The large 2755 sq ft 4-bedroom houses are approached by a beautiful private driveway of over 120 metres that is bordered by mature trees and a wild pond leading up to the elevated and secluded development. 

The houses boast eco features such as an EPC A rating, solar panels with battery, air source heat pump, triple glazed windows and electric car charging point. 

Set in over ten acres of glorious countryside, the houses each have a generous plot with south facing rear gardens and lawns to the front. Each has ample parking and a good sized single garage with electric door, but it’s the extra spaces that make it special. On top of the individual plots, each home has an option to purchase additional land, a very rare opportunity for a new build home. An area of approx. seven acres is available to split into paddocks and this option will be offered to the first owners.

Location

Location

The joy of the development’s location is that you are able to explore scenic unspoilt outdoor walks on footpaths, bridleways and delightful green lanes which offer stunning countryside surroundings and delightful wildlife. Sutton Orchard is a 30 minute drive from both Dartmoor and Exmoor or if its unspoiled flora and fauna and verdant countryside you’re after – and ‘getting away from it all’ you can walk there via the Two Moors Way.  Being equidistant between North and South Devon coasts – you also have a choice of coastlines to visit. 

The air pollutants are very low aiding healthy living and there is the ability to offer a more sustainable lifestyle with the unique private field adjacent to the houses providing the potential to grow your own vegetables or to keep chickens and bees. Marvel at the Milky Way as the skies are so wonderfully dark due to no light pollution. 

As this corner of Devon is truly unspoilt the wildlife has thrived with plenty of deer, foxes, badgers, bats, hedgehogs, hares, stoats, owls and buzzards as well as an idyllic dawn chorus every morning. The pond in the communal meadow welcomes house martins and swallows each summer, with ducks, herons and kingfishers visiting alongside aquatic life such as frogs and toads. The meadow is a heavenly place for kids and adults alike to camp out roasting marshmallows over a campfire or do bushcraft activities. Your new country life truly awaits!

The development is located 0.5 mile from the small hamlet of Newbuildings which lies a 25-minute drive from Exeter, to the north-west of Crediton, and comprises a pretty collection of thatched cottages and farmhouses in some of Mid Devon’s most picturesque countryside.

Although this enjoys a truly rural position, there are local village shops and traditional pubs that provide useful day to day services. The London Inn and Church Street stores are located in Morchard Bishop which is just 2 miles away and the village of Copplestone provides a local store and farm shop which is only 1.5 miles away.

The well-regarded village of Sandford, approximately 4.1 miles away, has a good range of amenities including a village hall, community shop, Post Office, historic church, pre-school, popular primary school and two excellent pubs.

The nearby busy market town of Crediton offers a wider range of amenities including a farmers’ market, supermarkets, local shops, a GP surgery, secondary schooling and a railway station on the Tarka Line. The historic university and cathedral city of Exeter provides a wide range of facilities including fantastic shopping, dining, cultural, sporting and recreational pursuits, as well as mainline railway stations on the Paddington and Waterloo lines. Exeter International Airport has a good deal of domestic and European destinations.

You can catch a train from Copplestone, Morchard Road or Crediton train station – all which are within 10-15 minutes drive with connections to Exeter St Davids train station so access to London is convenient taking around 2 hours from Exeter St Davids to London Paddington.
