Description

A bright entrance hall provides the welcome to this detached home, featuring a convenient cloakroom with coat cupboard. The spacious sitting room features a Jetmaster open fire, and has a lovely outlook over the gardens with a door opening out onto a sheltered rear porch. Off the sitting room is a versatile, dual-aspect garden/playroom, with vaulted ceilings and skylights providing an abundance of natural light and direct access to the side and rear gardens. Also off the entrance hall, the dining room includes a bay window and elegant features such as picture-rails and coving.

The heart of the ground floor is the kitchen and family room. The kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of units, a gas-fired Aga and enjoys views over the garden. The adjoining family room has French doors to the side, and also an external door to the front. A practical utility room completes the ground floor.

The first floor accommodates four generous bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite featuring dual-aspect windows, water views, built-in storage, and a private en-suite shower room. Bedroom two is a light-filled double room featuring exposed ceiling timbers and fitted mirrored wardrobes, while bedrooms three and four both enjoy glimpses of the estuary, built-in storage, and dedicated wash facilities (with bedroom four also housing a private shower). A modern family bathroom serves this level with vanity storage, and an adjacent WC.

Occupying the top floor is an attic space spanning the entire length of the home, complete with Velux skylights capturing elevated estuary vistas, built-in storage, and a fitted office area.
Outside, the gated drive offers parking for at least eight cars. A garden to the side with two decked seating areas and outside storage and to the rear a crazy paved patio with level lawn, with bay fenced borders on two sides a and a hedge on the third.

Situation

Exton lies on the East side of the River Exe Estuary, some six miles from the Cathedral city of Exeter with its comprehensive range of services and five miles from the coastal town of Exmouth, popular for its long sandy beach. Considered a special place to live, Exton has the benefit of a train station, which provides easy access to Exeter and Exmouth. The Puffing Billy gastro pub is within walking distance and offers a superb and varied menu. The M5 motorway, A38 and A30 are easily accessible and there is a half hourly bus service to Exeter and Exmouth.

Directions

From Topsham, head towards Exmouth along the A376, passing through Ebford. On entering Exton, pass the service station and take the next right into Exton Lane, the property can be found on the left hand side.
