The indulgent family bathroom features a roll-top bath and separate shower, creating a boutique-style sanctuary. There is further scope for a loft conversion subject to the correct planning.
The grounds have been meticulously redesigned to create an exceptional lifestyle setting. Resin pathways, manicured lawn, and multiple terraces form a series of outdoor "rooms", complemented by a superb outdoor kitchen, hot tub area and uninterrupted countryside views.
Two newly constructed outbuildings now provide a premium home office and a dedicated gym along with separate storage perfect for modern living.
With an enhanced private driveway, impeccable presentation and extraordinary attention to detail, Leat House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinguished home within effortless reach of Exeter, major transport links, and regional amenities yet with the peace, privacy and charm of quintessential village life.
