LOCATION
Brampford Speke is a quintessential Devon village nestled in the heart of the Exe Valley, just four miles north of Exeter. Surrounded by some of the county’s most beautiful and unspoilt countryside, the village offers a peaceful rural lifestyle with the convenience of the city nearby.

The village is known for its strong sense of community and traditional charm. It features a well regarded primary school, a Grade I listed parish church, a welcoming village hall, and the very popular Agricultural Inn, a country pub renowned for its food, outside dining and “secret garden”.

Brampford Speke is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with numerous footpaths and bridleways offering scenic walks along the River Exe and through the surrounding countryside.

The nearby city of Exeter provides excellent shopping, cultural attractions, and rail links to London and beyond via Exeter St Davids mainline train station. Schooling in the area is of the highest standard, with Exeter school and The Maynard within the city and Blundells School in Tiverton.

From the road steps rise to the handy entrance porch which leads into a wonderful, light-filled dining area. To the right is the recently upgraded kitchen with fitted base and wall cupboards, oven, hob and sink. There are French doors opening to the terrace and garden creating a wonderful feeling of light and space. The sitting room is charming with an impressive stone fireplace with wooden lintel and incorporating a woodburner, from here there is a front door which opens to the road and the staircase rises to the landing where there are three bedrooms. Also off the landing is the bathroom with bath, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.
