Set within roughly two acres of private grounds and commanding open countryside views, this substantial five-bedroom detached house delivers nearly 4,100 sqft of contemporary living with strong family and entertaining spaces. The dramatic double-height entrance, 32ft open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, extensive glazing and a balcony with sunset views create bright, flexible living areas designed for modern family life. Thoughtful fixtures include underfloor heating throughout, smart controls, PV panels, MVHR and an Air Source Heat Pump to reduce running costs and enhance comfort.
The principal suite is a private retreat with a handmade walk-in wardrobe, spa-style en suite and freestanding fluted bath framed by scenic views. Ground-floor flexibility comes from two further reception rooms (one currently configured as a cinema/bedroom five), a utility, cloakroom and a sizeable plant/boot room. Outside, a detached double garage plus an attached studio/gym/workshop adds practical space for hobbies, home-working or additional storage.
Practical considerations are clear: broadband speeds are very slow in this hamlet setting and the property records an oil-fired boiler as the main heating fuel alongside the newer low-carbon systems. Service charges (c.£1,700 pa) apply and the listing notes a 10-year structural warranty — useful reassurance. The house sits in a very low-crime, semi-rural neighbourhood about four miles from Exeter, offering peace, privacy and convenient access to city amenities and commuter routes.
Overall, this home will suit families or buyers seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle with generous accommodation, considerable entertaining spaces and significant outbuilding potential. Buyers wanting immediate high-speed connectivity or a purely fossil-fuel-free system should factor in additional upgrades.
