5 bedroom detached house

Description

An attractive and highly efficient modern detached home in a gated development of four houses in Holland Park, Exeter.

This bright and spacious, semi open-plan property is ideally located between Exeter and Topsham for convenient access to local amenities and major routes.

Built by local award-winning Heritage Homes in 2015, this home is arguably the best located and orientated within the original development in a gated community of only four properties adjacent to the Exeter Golf and Country Club golf course.

With accommodation of over 3300 sq ft the home has a south facing rear garden which backs on to the private parkland grounds of the Grade II Listed Newcourt House creating a very attractive and private environment and outlook.

The property has high energy efficiency with triple glazed windows throughout and a large private Photovoltaic system with 34 solar panels capable of running the home, and creating a useful additional income for generated power fed back to the grid. The property also has gas central heating with underfloor heating on the ground floor and thermostatic radiators on the first floor. The ground floor is fully tiled with large Porcelanosa limestone style ceramic tiles and carpets fitted upstairs.

On entering the property one arrives in a large impressive double height entrance hall with an attractive hardwood stair and a double storey feature stone wall. Off the hall is a home office, a modern cloakroom, and a large storage cupboard which houses a Cat5 installation with network points throughout the property.

The house has a 26ft triple aspect sitting room with windows to the front, side, a log burning stove and bifold doors leading out to the south facing rear garden. The sitting room has a semi open plan feel opening into the kitchen/breakfast/family room, which also has bifold doors leading out to the rear garden. The breakfast area and family room enjoy a lovely view of the gardens, often home to an array of birds and wildlife. The high-quality kitchen is an amateur chef or entertaining hosts dream with integral Quality Swiss made V-ZUG appliances with a main oven, a combi-steam oven and combi-microwave oven, an automatic coffee machine, a glass ceramic induction hob, and a dishwasher. There is also an integrated full height Liebherr fridge and separate full height Leibherr freezer. The kitchen has soft-closing cupboard and deep drawer units, a large central island, and a one and a half bowl sink with a water filter tap.

A second door leads from the kitchen out into a garden area at the side of the property and to a useful separate utility room with cupboard and drawer units, space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Completing the ground floor is a dual aspect room with a large window to the front and to the side garden, currently used as a dining room but could easily be a home gym/second office.

On the first floor is a spacious galleried landing with plenty of natural light and a glass balustrade overlooking the entrance hall. An airing cupboard and a hatch to the roof space.

The principal bedroom suite is a real highlight with views over the garden, an ensuite bathroom divided into an area with a freestanding bath and large basin with a drawer unit underneath, and separate area with a WC and walk in shower.

Double doors lead to a large dressing room however, the doors are lockable from the principal bedroom so the Dressing Room/Bedroom Five can become a separate double bedroom if required.

Bedroom Two has an ensuite shower room with a walk in shower with a glass screen and rainfall shower head, a wall hung WC and a basin with a drawer unit under. Both Bedrooms Two and Three have large walk-in wardrobes with built in flexible wardrobe set ups with sliding drawer units, hanging space and shelving.

Bedroom Three is dual aspect and has large windows at the front. Bedroom Four also enjoys a dual aspect. The modern and stylish family bathroom has a freestanding bath, large walk in shower with a glass screen and a rainfall shower head, and large basin with a drawer unit underneath and wall hung WC.

Outside, there is a private driveway with parking for several vehicles, along with a triple garage. The garden extends from the front, with an area to the side of the property laid to lawn, with three raised beds for vegetables and flowers, apple trees and a garden shed.

The rear garden enjoys a southerly aspect and a good degree of privacy and has a super terrace/ outdoor entertaining space accessed off the Kitchen Family room and Sitting Room.
The attractive gardens feature a lawn, flowering shrubs and small trees and have an outlook through the boundary trees to the parkland at Newcourt House to the rear of the property.
