5 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

Description

A handsome Grade II Listed Georgian home, set in one of Heavitree’s most desirable positions. Just a short walk from Exeter’s vibrant City Centre, the RD&E Hospital and an array of excellent amenities, it also enjoys close proximity to Heavitree Fore Street, Magdalen Road’s popular independent shops and cafés, Waitrose, and both Heavitree and Belmont Parks. Families will also appreciate the choice of highly acclaimed primary and secondary schools nearby.

The property has been thoughtfully restored and modernised, blending elegant period architecture with the needs of contemporary living. High ceilings, original wood floors, feature fireplaces throughout, ornate cornicing and tall sash windows flood the rooms with light, while sensitive updates provide comfort and convenience.

A grand stone porch sets the tone, leading into a welcoming hallway with original flooring and staircase rising through parts of the house. The formal sitting room, with dual-aspect French windows and an open fireplace with marble surround, provides an impressive yet comfortable reception space. Across the hall, the heart of the home is a remarkable open-plan kitchen and dining room. This south-facing room is filled with natural light and enjoys direct access to a raised terrace overlooking the garden. A granite-topped central island, handmade oak cabinetry, high-end appliances – including a Siemens induction hob and Rangemaster oven – and a wood-burning stove combine practicality with character, while allowing ample space for dining and entertaining. A useful utility room, cloakroom and understairs storage complete the ground floor.

The first floor offers three generous double bedrooms all with character features and two with built in storage, served by a stylish family bathroom with metro-style tiling and a shower-over-bath. On the top floor, all rooms have far reaching views with the landing also incorporating a delightful seating area, where elevated views stretch towards the Haldon Hills. The master suite occupies a particularly spacious position, cleverly designed to include a dressing area with fitted wardrobes. A further double bedroom and a contemporary shower room with twin basins and quality fittings complete the accommodation.

Adding a rare degree of versatility, the lower ground floor comprises a well-presented, self-contained two-bedroom flat. With its own entrance, modern kitchen, bathroom, and direct garden access, this space is ideal for multigenerational living, visiting guests, or generating an income stream through letting.

The south-facing garden is a wonderful private retreat. Mainly laid to lawn and enclosed by attractive walls, it includes a composite-decked terrace leading directly from the kitchen – perfect for outdoor dining. Mature trees and shrubs provide interest and seclusion, while additional features such as a summerhouse/shed and underground storage for bikes or sports equipment add practicality. Parking is provided for several vehicles at the front of the property on the driveway.
