Old Ide Lane, Ide, Exeter EX2

Beautifully updated 4/5 bedroom home with separate detached 1 bedroom annex. Located in the village of Ide with no chain.

Full description A truly exceptional and rarely available four/five-bedroom detached home, situated in the highly sought-after village of Ide, just 20 minutes from Exeter city centre. Set within a substantial and wonderfully private plot, this hidden gem offers spacious and beautifully presented family accommodation, a detached one-bedroom annex, substantial driveway parking and a detached outbuilding currently used in place of a garage.

Properties offering this combination of a substantial family home and separate annexe are exceptionally difficult to find, making this a particularly exciting opportunity for families seeking multigenerational living, additional accommodation or an investment opportunity.

Upon entering the main house, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hallway, with beautiful herringbone flooring flowing seamlessly through towards the impressive kitchen/dining space. There is ample room for coats, shoes and additional furniture, while an understairs cupboard provides useful storage.

At the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and utility area. The modern fitted kitchen features integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge freezer and double oven, while windows to both sides create a wonderful dual aspect and fill the room with natural light. There is plenty of space for a large family dining table, and sliding doors provide a seamless connection with the garden, while also allowing the dining area to be closed off when desired.

The adjoining utility room provides further storage, a sink and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with direct access to the garden. This is particularly practical for families with pets, offering the ideal place to clean muddy paws after walks through the surrounding countryside.

The exceptionally spacious living room is another real highlight, with large French doors opening directly onto the patio and garden beyond. This creates a fantastic sense of indoor-outdoor living and provides a wonderful space for entertaining or relaxing with the family.

Also on the ground floor is bedroom five, which offers excellent flexibility and could equally be used as a separate reception room, home office, study or children's playroom. A useful downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are four generously proportioned double bedrooms. Bedroom one benefits from a beautifully appointed en suite shower room, featuring a freestanding shower, wall-hung WC, wash hand basin with storage and attractive honeycomb tiling.

Bedroom 2 has a large built in wardrobe and all 4 of the bedrooms have large windows making them very light and airy.

The family bathroom is equally impressive, with a bath and overhead mains shower, wall-hung WC, wash hand basin with storage and a large window providing plenty of natural light.

Outside, the property truly comes into its own. The substantial garden wraps around the house and combines a large lawn with a generous patio area, providing plenty of space for children and pets to enjoy while offering an excellent setting for alfresco dining and entertaining. A side gate connects the garden to the driveway.

The extensive driveway provides parking for approximately five to six vehicles and is accessed via a private road shared with just one other property, creating an exceptionally peaceful and private setting. There is also a detached outbuilding which is currently utilised in place of a garage.

The newly built detached annexe is a fantastic addition and has been constructed to building regulations. Offering generous and versatile accommodation, it comprises a spacious open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, a huge double bedroom and a beautifully finished fitted bathroom. Wood-effect flooring, a fitted kitchen and windows surrounding the living space create an exceptionally bright and welcoming environment.

The bedroom is particularly impressive in size, with enough space to accommodate two double beds if required, while the modern bathroom has been finished to an excellent standard.

The annexe is currently tenanted, providing the potential for an immediate additional income stream, or it could be ideal for dependent relatives, multigenerational living, guests or older children seeking their own space.

Combining a beautifully presented and spacious family home with a substantial private garden, generous parking and a high-quality detached annexe, this is a rare opportunity in the Exeter area. The property is offered to the market with no onward chain, and the vendors are able to proceed quickly.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, versatility and privacy this exceptional property has to offer.
