Set within the heart of the popular mid-Devon village of Morchard Bishop, Chippings enjoys a prime position on a mainly level plot. Morchard Bishop is a thriving community with a well-regarded primary school, shop with post office, popular pub, and a wealth of clubs and activities, all surrounded by glorious rolling countryside. With easy access to Crediton, Exeter and beyond, the village offers the perfect blend of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience.
This spacious detached bungalow offers well-proportioned accommodation throughout. The entrance hall leads to a bright living room with feature fireplace and sliding doors to the front garden. The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of units and provides ample space, with direct access to the driveway to the side. There are three comfortable bedrooms (one used as a dining room with doors to the rear garden), including a generous principal room, and a well-appointed family bathroom with a separate bath and shower. It’s been well kept but is dated in its décor so it provides scope for personalisation, with plenty of potential to modernise to one’s own taste.
Outside, the property is approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking and leading to a detached garage. The gardens are a real feature, wrapping around the bungalow and offering lawned and planted areas with mature shrubs and hedging to the front and a real blank canvass to the rear having recently been cut back. It’s a lovely setting to enjoy the peaceful village surroundings.

morchard bishop is a popular village, sitting amid a network of more than 60 footpaths and bridleways including the Two Moors Way, for which it is the mid-way point. Famous for having the longest row of thatched, terraced cottages in England, Morchard is a popular village not least because of its C of E primary school (ofsted Good), excellent pub, doctor’s surgery, and community run shop. There’s a thriving community scene offering a variety of events and activities ranging from the monthly produce market to sporting clubs. Nearby is Morchard Road where you can catch a train on the scenic Tarka Line to Barnstaple or Exeter. For a wider range of shops and amenities Crediton and Exeter are 7-miles and 15-miles away respectively. A regular daily bus service from the village also provides access to both these towns.
