The heart of the home is a striking open-plan kitchen, dining and family room with bi-fold doors opening to a west-facing deck and landscaped garden — ideal for evening sun and family entertaining.

Buyers should note material considerations clearly and factually: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and the council tax band is expensive. The EPC is band C (79). These factors affect running costs and insurance; prospective purchasers should obtain specialist advice and checks around flood mitigation and insurance availability.
Overall, Millstream Lodge is a spacious, contemporary family home set on a large plot in a sought-after village. It suits families wanting generous indoor-outdoor living, parking and storage, and quick access to Exeter, provided they factor in flood risk and running costs.
