Description
A Rare Opportunity to Acquire a Contemporary Cathedral-View Apartment in the Historic Heart of Exeter
Wilkinson Grant & Co. are delighted to present this truly exceptional three-bedroom apartment, occupying a privileged position in one of Exeter’s most coveted and historic quarters.
With uninterrupted, direct views of the iconic Exeter Cathedral, this beautifully appointed property offers a rare blend of contemporary design, exceptional living space, and a private outdoor terrace — all within an exclusive, low-density development of just seven properties.
This is not merely a home — it is a lifestyle statement.
Upon entering the apartment, one is immediately struck by the sense of volume and light. The generous double-height living area is a defining feature of this remarkable home. Picture window glazing allows natural light to flood in throughout the day, while simultaneously offering spectacular, uninterrupted views across the Cathedral Green.
This remarkable space flows seamlessly into an open-plan kitchen, designed to support both relaxation and social gatherings. Engineered with both form and function in mind, the layout is intuitively arranged, allowing for effortless modern living.
The interior design is refined and contemporary, with finishes chosen to complement the building's heritage and setting. Walls are tastefully painted in an elegant palette of Farrow & Ball colours, adding warmth and depth while reinforcing the apartment’s calm, timeless aesthetic.
The kitchen itself is a showcase of understated luxury, featuring high-quality fittings and integrated appliances, ensuring it not only looks the part but performs to the expectations of a serious home chef. Clean lines, clever storage solutions, and premium worktops reflect a commitment to quality and modern elegance.
In addition to the two bedrooms, the property benefits from a thoughtfully designed study/3rd bedroom — ideal for professionals or creatives seeking a comfortable and inspiring place to work from home. This cleverly incorporated space ensures the apartment can adapt to a range of modern lifestyle needs without compromising its openness or visual harmony.
One of the apartment's most appealing and rarest features is its private terrace. Providing a peaceful and sheltered retreat, the terrace is accessed directly from the study. Generously proportioned and low-maintenance, it offers ample room for al fresco dining with the option of the study becoming a formal dining space.
Situated within an exclusive development of just seven apartments, this property benefits from an unusually high level of privacy and tranquillity for such a central location.
The building is serviced by a lift to all floors, providing ease of access for all residents — a rare and valuable amenity in many city-centre conversions. The sense of community within the building is discreet yet reassuring. With only a handful of properties sharing the space, noise is minimal, and upkeep is shared among a small number of like-minded owners.
The apartment's location is simply unmatched. Set within moments of the High Street, Cathedral Green, and the vibrant Princesshay shopping and dining district, you are perfectly placed to enjoy the very best that Exeter has to offer. From independent boutiques and cafes to award-winning restaurants and cultural attractions, everything is within easy walking distance.
For those who commute or travel regularly, Exeter Central Station is a short stroll away, providing direct connections to London and other key destinations. The M5 and Exeter Airport are also within easy reach, making national and international travel seamless.
Situation
In an unrivalled position overlooking Cathedral Green in the heart of Exeter, these first rate residences are unmatched in the area.
The Cathedral and its picturesque Green are the jewel in Exeter's architectural crown. A popular location all year round with the Christmas Market an annual highlight.
The nearby cobbled streets are brimming with eateries, cafes and shops. England's oldest pub and hotel are a stone's throw away. For a modern dining experience, head to the city's new restaurant quarter for a cocktail at a rooftop bar or take your pick from a range of cuisines - Scandinavian, Middle Eastern or gourmet burgers.
The City also shines in the education arena with both Exeter University and Exeter College gaining national recognition as standout educational providers.
Exeter is one of the regions favourite places for shopping and Princesshay offers an abundance of high-street brands, with smaller independents nestled on the cobbled walkway of Gandy Street, located in the Castle quarter of the city.
Directions
From our office walk down the hill and turn right onto High Street, continue past the shops until you reach City Bank on your left hand side, the Ivy Restaurant is housed on the ground floor. The entrance to the apartments can be found at the end of the walk through on the left hand side opposite the Cathedral.
