Set on an exceptional 1.31-acre plot, this Grade II-listed six-bedroom home combines grand period proportions with contemporary living spaces. The house presents expansive reception rooms, a high‑ceiling contemporary kitchen with indoor–outdoor flow, and beautifully landscaped, private gardens centred on a heated swimming pool and hot tub. A recently refurbished basement with separate entrance provides a self-contained bedroom, living area, kitchen and shower room — ideal for multi‑generational living or guests.
The principal suite enjoys a dressing room and en suite with a sunken bath; four further bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor. Ground-floor accommodation includes a study, utility, boot room and snug, plus original details such as stained glass, wood panelling, parquet and carved staircase that reinforce the home’s character. The location offers easy access to Exeter city centre (0.8 miles), mainline rail, the M5 and excellent independent schools nearby.
Important practical points: the property is Grade II listed which will constrain alterations and may affect insurance and consent for works. The stone walls appear to be uninsulated and the home’s principal heating is a boiler with bulk wood pellet fuel — these factors could mean higher running or retrofit costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Broadband is average despite excellent mobile signal.
This is a rare offer for a family seeking privacy, space and flexibility within walking distance of the city. Buyers wanting a turnkey, characterful residence with separate annex space will appreciate the mature, secluded grounds and pool; purchasers planning significant structural or thermal upgrades should allow for listed‑building restrictions and associated costs.
