An elegant Edwardian townhouse blending period charm with contemporary living, set in one of Exeter’s most desirable addresses.

Description

Dating from 1906, this beautifully restored townhouse offers generous and versatile accommodation across three floors, showcasing original fireplaces, ornate cornicing, and bay sash windows, all thoughtfully paired with a high-spec contemporary interior. Great care has been taken to enhance the home’s energy efficiency with improved insulation, LED lighting, and double/triple glazing.

Measuring in total just over 2,050 sq. ft, the impressive open-plan kitchen and living space is the heart of the home, flooded with light via a full-width glazed roof and bifold doors that open directly onto the rear terrace. Bespoke cabinetry, a central island and integrated appliances combine to create a stylish and functional family space, with engineered oak flooring and underfloor heating. A separate sitting room to the front, complete with wood-burning stove, offers a cosy retreat.

Upstairs, the generous principal bedroom suite features a bay window, dressing room and smart en suite. A vaulted second bedroom enjoys garden views, while two further double bedrooms are served by a striking family bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath and walk-in shower on the second floor. Additional conveniences include a laundry room, cloakroom and Hive-controlled central heating.

The landscaped rear garden offers a private and colourful setting for entertaining, with raised borders, hardwood decking on one level and a tiled terrace on another, with direct access via a rear service lane. To the front, a gated path leads through a well-maintained garden to the front door, with residents parking close by.
