Sutton Orchard, Crediton

The Development: Sutton Orchard is a collection of five contemporary detached homes near Newbuildings, Crediton.

Set in spacious grounds, the development combines private gardens with shared access to wildflower grassland, native woodland and a wildlife pond.

Larch cladding, standing-seam roofs and extensive glazing give the properties a distinctive architectural character, complemented by generous interiors and a comprehensive energy specification.

The Accommodation: Designed around family life, the homes balance sociable living areas with separate spaces for work and relaxation.

Vaulted entrance halls, oak staircases and galleried landings introduce the accommodation, while south-facing principal living spaces open onto terraces and gardens.

The kitchen and dining area forms the centre of each home, complemented by an informal sitting area, a separate drawing room and a dedicated study.

Boot room, pantry and laundry areas provide practical support to the main accommodation. Four bedrooms offer space for family and guests.

The principal suite includes a dressing area and en suite bathroom, with a guest en suite and family bathroom serving the remaining accommodation.

Specification and Energy Performance: Solid wood Shaker kitchens feature quartz worktops, generous islands and integrated appliances, including a wine cooler.

Engineered oak flooring, Mandarin Stone porcelain tiles and carefully selected sanitaryware complete the interiors.

Each home has an EPC A rating, with solar panels, battery storage, an air source heat pump, high-performance triple glazing and an electric vehicle charging point.

Underfloor heating serves the ground floor, excluding the pantry, and the first-floor bathrooms. Fibre broadband provision supports home working.
