7, Salmon Hutch, Uton, EX17 3QN

Tucked away in a small cluster of cottages surrounded by countryside, 7 Salmon Hutch offers the perfect balance of rural living without isolation.

Found just under a mile from Crediton, it enjoys a lovely position beside the River Yeo with country walks quite literally on the doorstep, yet the town and its amenities are only moments away.

The cottage has been significantly improved and extended over the years and now offers surprisingly spacious accommodation with a lovely blend of character and practicality.

It’s clear from the moment you step inside that this is a home that has been well cared for and thoughtfully updated. The ground floor layout works particularly well for modern living.

The entrance hall is larger than expected and could be used as a second living or dining space, although it would work equally well as a study or playroom depending on needs.

The living room is a cosy and inviting space with exposed flooring, character fireplace and wood-burner creating the perfect winter retreat.

To the rear, the kitchen/dining room is likely to become the real hub of the home.

It’s a wonderfully sociable room with plenty of space for entertaining and family life, while double doors open directly onto the garden.

The kitchen itself is well fitted and centred around the oil-fired Rayburn which provides both heating and hot water.

Beyond this is the garden room, a lighter and more contemporary feeling reception space overlooking the garden and again opening outside, giving excellent flexibility to the ground floor accommodation.

A useful utility/boot room and downstairs WC complete the ground floor.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms, including a particularly impressive principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, alongside the family bathroom serving the remaining rooms.

Throughout the house there’s a lovely balance between traditional cottage charm and modern comfort, with handmade oak doors, exposed timber flooring and plenty of natural light.

Outside, the south facing gardens are another real asset.

Level and beautifully maintained, they are mainly laid to lawn with established planting and seating areas, backing directly onto open farmland and enjoying a peaceful rural outlook.

There’s also a useful timber shed and off-road parking for a couple of vehicles to the front.

Overall, this is a lovely country cottage that offers far more space than first expected, in a setting that feels wonderfully rural while remaining incredibly convenient for Crediton and its amenities.

CREDITON is a vibrant market town with a bustling high street full of independent shops, eateries, and pubs.

In recent years a diverse arts scene has grown to include all manner of mediums, with the performing arts making use of the town’s market square where, in the summer months, a range of activities take place.

The market square is also home to the town’s twice-monthly farmer’s market. The town has an equally significant past.

It was originally the first Bishopric in Devon and the imposing Parish Church of The Holy Cross now stands where once stood Devon’s first Saxon cathedral (909-1050AD).

It is also the birthplace of Saint Boniface, one of the founding fathers of the Christian church in Europe.

Easily commutable to Exeter and with two primary schools, a secondary school with sixth form as well as a wide range of necessary amenities, it’s clear why the town is a firm favourite with locals and relocators alike.
