4 bed detached house for sale

Exeter, Devon EX1

Description

A substantial and beautifully presented detached family home, extending to approximately 1800 sq ft and arranged over three floors, offering an exceptional amount of versatile accommodation together with a generous garden, extensive parking and excellent entertaining space.

The scale of the property is immediately apparent, a particularly impressive entrance hall sets the tone, with excellent proportions and access to the principal living spaces. The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged around family life and entertaining, with a superb open-plan kitchen and living area forming the natural heart of the home. The kitchen provides an excellent amount of storage and preparation space, while the adjoining living area creates a relaxed and sociable environment for everyday life.

There is also a separate dining room of generous proportions, providing a more formal setting for entertaining and family gatherings. To the rear, a further reception room offers valuable flexibility and could equally lend itself to a family room, snug or quieter sitting room. A dedicated playroom adds yet another dimension to the accommodation, providing an ideal space for hobbies, recreation or entertaining and allowing the principal living areas to remain beautifully uncluttered.

The first floor continues to impress, with three well proportioned double bedrooms, each benefitting from built-in storage. One bedroom has the added advantage of its own private balcony, providing a lovely spot to step outside and enjoy a little peace and quiet. These bedrooms are served by a spacious and contemporary family bathroom.

Occupying the entire second floor is the impressive principal bedroom suite. Quietly separated from the remainder of the accommodation, this is a wonderfully private space with generous proportions and its own shower and wash basin. The size of the room allows considerable flexibility for bedroom furniture, dressing space or a comfortable seating area.

Outside, the property occupies a generous plot with excellent space for both family life and entertaining. The rear garden is a particular highlight, with a large decked seating area providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and summer gatherings, while the substantial lawn offers plenty of room for children to play or for keen gardeners to make their mark. A summer house at the far end of the garden creates a versatile additional space, whether used as a home office, hobby room or games space.

Practicality has also been well considered, with side access on both sides of the property making it particularly convenient for family living and garden maintenance. To the front, a generous driveway provides extensive off-road parking, while the attached boarded garage offers excellent additional storage and could lend itself to workshop.
