Period character and bright open-plan living with a long south-facing garden and studio.
Grade II listed Georgian cottage — restrictions on alterations
This Grade II listed Georgian cottage on Monmouth Street blends period character with generous, light-filled living. A vaulted, open-plan ground floor living/dining area with skylights and electric underfloor heating creates a bright social hub that opens onto a long, south-facing garden — ideal for family life, entertaining or gardening. The property includes a sizeable heated studio at the rear and allocated off-street parking.
Accommodation is arranged over three floors: flexible ground-floor living (or a fourth bedroom), two double bedrooms on the first floor and a master suite with ensuite and eaves storage on the top floor. Character features and period details remain throughout, while modern comforts include a fitted kitchen, utility and gas central heating alongside the electric underfloor system in the living/kitchen areas.
Important practical points: the listed status protects historic fabric and will restrict alterations, which can complicate extensions or replacement works. The multi-storey layout and stairs may not suit limited mobility. The property sits in a very low-crime, affluent area with fast broadband and good local amenities, schools and transport links to Exeter and the M5.
