description: Occupying a wonderfully private position at the lower end of Argyll Road, with little to no passing traffic, this impressive extended detached home offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor includes a good-sized sitting room, two bedrooms, study/fifth bedroom, utility and cloakroom. The impressive open-plan modern kitchen with built-in appliances opens into a generous dining/family room, while two further bedrooms and bathrooms are found on the first floor. All the principal rooms enjoy the superb Duryard Valley outlook.
The landscaped rear garden is a particular highlight, featuring a large balcony terrace overlooking the valley, two separate areas of lawn and an additional paved seating area. A fantastic detached garden studio, currently arranged as a home gym and with its own cloakroom, provides excellent flexibility as a gym, office, studio or hobbies space. There is parking for several cars to the front.
A truly individual home offering generous accommodation, exceptional views and superb outside space.
Location: Argyll Road occupies an enviable elevated position within one of Exeter’s most desirable residential areas, backing directly onto the beautiful Belvedere Nature Reserve. The property enjoys a wonderfully private, semi-rural setting with superb far-reaching south-westerly views extending across the Duryard Valley towards the Haldon Hills. Despite this peaceful and leafy environment, Exeter city centre is only around 1½ miles away, offering an excellent selection of independent shops, restaurants, cafés, cultural attractions and leisure facilities. The University of Exeter’s renowned Streatham campus is also close at hand, as is Exeter College. The surrounding countryside provides an extensive network of footpaths and open green spaces, making this an exceptional location for those who enjoy walking and outdoor pursuits. Exeter St David’s Station provides direct rail services to London Paddington and the wider South West, while Exeter International Airport is approximately six miles away. Rarely does a city location offer such a compelling combination of outstanding views, immediate access to countryside and effortless proximity to the centre.
