A striking former chapel converted into a high-spec, energy-efficient family home in central Exeter. The property balances dramatic, light-filled living spaces with practical, low-allergen, low-maintenance finishes and modern underfloor heating. The open-plan kitchen/dining/living room and high ceilings create an uplifting main living area ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.
The house offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms across three floors, including two ensuite principal bedrooms and a flexible ground-floor room suitable as a bedroom, office or playroom. Outdoor space is well considered for a central location: a south-facing, partly covered roof terrace with far-reaching views and a quiet paved courtyard garden provide separate spaces for relaxing and alfresco dining.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, no flood risk and an energy-efficient design that should reduce running costs. Important considerations: the plot is small, outside space is courtyard/roof terrace only, and the property sits in a mixed central area with nearby student neighbourhoods and a very deprived local-area classification — those seeking tranquillity should visit at different times. Council Tax is Band F, which will be comparatively costly.
