Worth viewing because

York House was built in around 1890 when the land which was formally the beach was reclaimed by the building of the sea wall. We believe that it was built for a wealthy merchant when Exmouth docks were one of the most important ports in the south-west. The house originally included the house to the right hand side (Magnolia House) which started life as a toll house and then a ships chandelier. During the Second World War, York house was requisitioned by the air force because of its amazing views over the mouth of the river Exe and Exmouth bay. The house was owned for many years by a well known local artist. In 2025 the house was completely renovated from top to bottom.

Bear in mind
We have been informed by our seller that all the following work was carried out as part of the renovation programme: All the internal walls, ceilings and floors were removed. All the external stone walls were lined with 100mm Celotex and the internal walls with 50mm Celotex. The floor joists were replaced and insulated with Rockwool. All the wiring, sockets and consumer unit were replaced. All the tanks were removed from the roof, and the house was completely re-plumbed. All the heating and water were moved out to the garage and a new eco boiler and high-pressure water system installed along with new high efficiency cylinders. Underfloor heating laid on the ground floor covered by a solid oak flooring. New ceilings and internal walls and all rep-lastered. New sliding doors, new front door, new back door and garage door. New sealed units for the ground floor sea facing window and second floor bathroom and all new furniture fitted to the windows. New high-quality kitchen with solid marble tops and new appliances. New top-quality bathrooms and toilets throughout the house providing en-suite bathrooms for the three main bedrooms and a shared shower room for bedrooms four and five. The outside of the house saw new insulated Tyrolean render and new guttering. The gas meter was removed from a shared supply and moved from the old kitchen to the garage. The house was then completely repainted. Basically, everything has been done with no expense spared to take this grand house well into the next century.
