Summary - 59 MARLBOROUGH ROAD EXETER EX2 4LN
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Spacious period family home with annexe potential and close-to-school convenience.
Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, circa 1840, high ceilings and original features
An elegant Grade II listed townhouse dating from c.1840, set within a secluded conservation terrace in St Leonards. The house extends to about 2,323 sq ft over four floors, offering generous, well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings and many original features such as sash windows, decorative fireplaces and the original staircase. The southerly rear garden and front sun terrace provide private outdoor space in a quiet city setting.
Arranged currently as four bedrooms with flexible layout for up to six, the house suits growing families who value character and proximity to excellent schools. St Leonard's Primary is in catchment, with top independent schools Exeter School and The Maynard School also within easy walking distance. The kitchen, formal dining and garden room flow well for family life and entertaining.
The lower-ground accommodation, with a second boiler and separate kitchenette/utility, offers clear potential for conversion into a self-contained annexe subject to listed-building consent. Buyers should note the property’s listed status will restrict alterations and may add time and cost to renovation plans. The EPC is rated D and council tax is described as expensive, which are practical running-cost considerations.
Well-situated for Magdalen Road’s independent shops, the city centre, mainline rail and airport links, this home combines substantial period accommodation with everyday convenience. Its location in a very low-crime, affluent area and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity make it a rare, city-centre family opportunity.
