House For Sale £700,000
A fantastic opportunity to acquire a fine Edwardian family house located on one of the most desirable roads within the city, located between the city centre and the main university campus.
From Thornton Hill, the front door to the property leads to a useful entrance porch, with inner door to the hallway and stairs to the first floor. The cosy living room is positioned to the front of the house, with feature woodburner and built in storage. The kitchen and dining area are to the rear, overlooking the pretty courtyard area. The contemporary kitchen, installed by the current owners, has a farmhouse feel, with space for range cooker. The dining area has space for a large table and further recessed storage.
The first floor comprises two bedrooms including the master with en-suite shower room, as well as family bathroom. The bathroom is attractively finished with shower bath and traditional pedestal wash basin. The second floor, converted with a rear dormer, houses two further bedrooms which overlook the rear courtyard.
Separate from, and to the rear of the main house, is a one bedroom annexe, converted by the current owners from a former outbuilding. It is a superb addition to the property and includes a modern bathroom, basic kitchen, and living space divided into a bedroom and sitting room area. There is a further space which is currently utilised for storage. The sitting room has patio doors to the garden, making a bright and useful room. The annexe is ideal for use a work/craft space, visitor accommodation or to generate supplementary income.
Outside the front garden extends around the side of the property and adjoins the rear parking and courtyard patio areas. The latter is a lovely space, with partially covered with a veranda to allow all-weather use. There is a good size garden office with light and power which can be included in the sale. This side of Thornton Hill benefits from a wide access road and there are double gates leading from here to a secure parking area which provides the rare advantage of space for two cars, as well as an EV charger. Residents on street parking permits are also available for Thornton Hill.
The location is a short walk to the city centre shopping areas as well as Exeter Central and St Davids mainline train stations. The coach station, university campuses and RD&E hospital are also within easy reach. Thornton Hill is within the Longbrook Conservation Area and is a remarkably peaceful corner of the city centre.
Overall this is superbly located family house with many fine attributes and plenty of character.
