Begin a new village life in 2008

Begin a new village life in 2008 Situated just half an hour’s drive from Exeter, Redrow’s development in Winkleigh has picture perfect family homes in a village setting. With only a handful of four-bedroom homes remaining at Winkleigh Cross, the chance to snap up a one of these spacious properties will not be available for long given the stunning countryside location.

Hannah Newnes, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (South West), said: “Whether it’s a detached home you’re looking for or a three-storey home with ‘rooms in the roof’, you’ll be sure to find a home at Winkleigh Cross to tick all your boxes.

“Devon is a beautiful place to live and can offer families an enviable lifestyle, with the beautiful coastline only an hour away for watersports, or for those who crave a more relaxed pace of life, the rolling countryside is perfect for lazy Sunday walks.”

The ‘Ouse’, ‘Ribble’ and ‘Walkham’ style houses are a new generation of homes with ready made loft conversions to provide that all important third floor of extra space that will suit buyers from all walks of life - from growing families seeking more space, to downsizers who intend to use an extra room for visiting guests, a home gym or study.

Space is the order of the day in an Ouse. The roomy lounge and open plan kitchen/dining room are located on the ground floor. The first floor boasts a spacious master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, as well as the second bedroom and family bathroom. The second floor is home to two further bedrooms in what would normally be redundant roof space, adding a sense of fun for children who can enjoy having their own ‘den’.

The roof space of the Ribble has been cleverly converted to create a sumptuous master bedroom with en-suite shower room – the perfect, peaceful retreat at the top of the house and ideal for enjoying the breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.

For those thinking of relocating, the village of Winkleigh has much to offer, including a post office, primary school, leisure centre and small supermarket. The towns of Crediton, Torrington and Okehampton are all less than 15 miles away and boast theatres, traditional markets and leisure centres. Dartmoor National Park is less than 15 miles from Winkleigh and the coast can be reached in just over an hour.

Winkleigh benefits from easy road links to the A386 and the A377 leading to Exeter, Barnstaple and the M5 to Weston-Super-Mare and beyond. Okehampton Railway station runs regular trains to Exeter and links to the main city lines.

Available homes are priced from £232,995.
