Everyday needs are well catered for with local shops, a pharmacy, a doctor’s surgery, and supermarkets close by, while scenic walks along the River Exe and surrounding countryside provide a refreshing escape.

Blending old-world charm with modern convenience, Alphington offers a variety of property styles — from quaint period cottages and well-kept apartments to stylish new-build homes.
