The property is nearly surrounded by
open countryside and bounded by a small stream. Also included is a former chicken house
which despite having seen better days has fantastic potential for any hobbyist with a need for covered space. This home has its own private driveway
approach and loads of parking, too. Fordy Bridge is beautifully located in a delightful setting on the edge of
the hamlet of Raddon, approximately a mile from the very-favoured village of Thorverton which occupies a lovely spot in the Exe valley. It’s well known for its unspoilt and beautiful countryside, yet only eight miles from Exeter. Thorverton has a church, chapel, small
shop and post office, pre-school and primary schools, two pubs and a farm shop not far away up at Latchmoor Green. The village has a particularly active community including a vibrant cricket club and football team. EL
