A four bedroom, converted period home with garage and off-street parking, superbly located just moments from the River Exe and city centre.

Description

Located within one of Exeter's most sought-after locations of St Leonards, this period house subsequently converted in recent years offers contemporary living throughout. Set over three floors and measuring just over 2,200 sqft, the house has four bedrooms and is superbly positioned just moments away from the River Exe and Exeter Quayside, making it a superb family home.

Upon entering through the front door, the entrance hallway immediately leads down to a large open plan kitchen living room that offers an abundance of light and space and certainly the heart of the house. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful dining room that is currently used as a games room by the current owner. To the rear of the house and leading on from the living room there is a conservatory sun room that opens onto the south facing rear garden.

Upstairs on the first floor, there are three good size double bedrooms, one with a walk in wardrobe and the family bathroom. Located on the second floor is the sizable principal bedroom that opens onto a private balcony that holds superb southerly views over the outskirts of the city and countryside beyond. The generously sized bathroom enjoys a jacuzzi bath with a separate shower, with a walk-in dressing room also located from the landing.

Gardens and Grounds
To the front of the property, a gate way opens into a small courtyard entrance. To the rear of the property, the conservatory sunroom opens onto a southerly facing patio and decked terrace that leads down to the garage and private driveway parking for two to three cars.

Location

St. Leonard’s is Exeter’s most favoured residential area, renowned for Georgian villas in tree lined avenues, excellent state and private schools, its proximity to Exeter Quay as well as being minutes from the city centre. 78B Topsham Road is roughly 0.5 mile from Magdalen Road, with its traditional parade of shops including a delicatessen, butchers, fishmongers, greengrocers, gift shop, convenience store, public house and restaurants. In even closer proximity are the pathways of the River Exe, leading to Exeter’s Quayside, estuary and canal, giving perfect access for walkers and the cyclists to the cycle paths.

Exeter offers great business and retail opportunities with a modern shopping precinct, a John Lewis and Waitrose, specialty boutiques, open air markets, restaurants, cafes and wine bars. There is also a range of quality leisure and sports facilities catering for all ages, including golf, swimming, athletics, rugby and football.

The city is well placed geographically too, with excellent communications. Exeter International Airport is about 5 miles distant, the motorway network is accessed nearby via Junctions 30/31 of the M5 and there are two mainline train stations providing services to Paddington or Waterloo. The idyllic scenery of Dartmoor and the East Devon coast are both within 10 miles.
