Description
Located in one of Exeter’s most sought-after residential areas, Salmon Pool Lane is a beautifully presented and deceptively spacious family home offering generous accommodation across three floors. Thoughtfully extended and updated, the property combines contemporary finishes with practical living, making it ideal for modern family life and those needing space to work from home.
The ground floor opens with a welcoming reception hallway featuring stylish oak flooring and ample built-in storage. From here, the sitting room offers a calm and elegant retreat, with a feature fireplace flanked by bespoke cabinetry and a large double-glazed window to the front.
One of the highlights of the home is the versatile ground floor guest suite, equally suited as a playroom or dedicated home office. This room benefits from a walk-in dressing area and a modern en suite shower room with high-quality fittings. A further study area between the hallway and kitchen provides space for a piano, bookshelves, or additional workspace.
The heart of the home is the stunning kitchen/family room, finished to a high standard with bespoke units, wood worktops, and a central island complete with wine cooler and breakfast bar. Ample room for a large dining table and soft seating makes this an ideal space for both family gatherings and entertaining. Full-width sliding doors and skylights flood the space with natural light and open directly to the garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles with fitted wardrobes and a fourth single bedroom currently used as an office. The family bathroom is modern and well appointed with quality fixtures and stylish tiling.
The principal bedroom occupies the second floor and is a fabulous room, with sliding doors overlooking the garden, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and a sleek en suite shower room. Parquet flooring adds character, and eaves storage enhances practicality.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is a brick-paved driveway with off-road parking for at least two cars. The rear garden is a standout feature—beautifully landscaped and exceptionally private, it offers a large patio area perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining, a level artificial lawn ideal for children, and a charming 'secret garden' beyond a wisteria-draped pergola. This secluded area provides a tranquil spot for relaxing or the potential for a productive kitchen garden.
Salmon Pool Lane offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial and stylish home in a desirable and well-connected part of Exeter, perfect for families seeking space, versatility, and access to excellent local amenities.
Situation
Situated in the highly desirable St Leonards area, Salmon Pool Lane enjoys a prime location just moments from Exeter’s historic Quayside, with its vibrant cafés, restaurants, and artisan shops. Picturesque riverside walks and cycle paths along the Exe Estuary Trail are right on the doorstep, providing easy access to open green spaces and outdoor activities.
The property falls within the catchment for several well-regarded primary and secondary schools, including Exeter School and The Maynard, as well as being within walking distance of Exeter College and the University of Exeter’s St Luke’s Campus. The Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital is under a mile away, while the city centre—with its wide range of shopping, dining, and cultural attractions—is just over a mile away.
Transport links are excellent, with Exeter Central station approximately 1.5 miles away. For those commuting further afield, Exeter St David’s mainline station (around 2 miles) offers regular services to London Paddington, while the M5 motorway and Exeter Airport are easily accessible by car.
Directions
From Exeter city centre, head southeast on Topsham Road (A3015) towards the River Exe. Continue straight for approximately one mile, passing County Hall on your left. Just before the traffic lights turn right into Salmon Pool Lane and the property will be found on the left hand side.
