About the Property
Description: 1 Oak Close enjoys a delightful Cul De Sac position within the highly desirable rural Devon Hamlet of Shillingford Abbot, situated in the midst of rich farmland but approximately just three miles south-west from the centre of Exeter. It is said to have historical connections with Oliver Cromwell. Buses pass through the village to and from the City or the market town of Newton Abbot. Shillingford Abbot is conveniently placed with excellent road links to the West Country's towns and picturesque coastlines (only 10 miles away), or exploring Dartmoor, Exmoor and the many characterful inland villages. There is easy access to the M5 motorway and Exeter airport. The nearby area of Alphington has a Post Office, grocery shop, newsagent/tobacconist, bakery and public house. Villagers have a choice of attending two parish churches, being situated equidistant from Alphington and Shillingford St George. Village children can attend either Alphington or Kennford school and then transfer to one of the high schools, the nearest being West Exe Community College. The property has a fully insulated conventional cavity wall construction with attractive faced brick work and render finish. All floors are suspended timber construction throughout.
