In more detail ...
This Victorian manor has been converted into 5 contemporary period apartments offering environmental credentials which include high levels of insulation and passive solar heat redistribution. This stunning apartment, located on the first and second floor, is approached via an outdoor staircase and is accessed via its own entrance door. As you step into the hallway with the high specification oak engineered flooring you instantly get a sense of the space and modern style this home affords. On entering the light filled well proportioned lounge/dining room your eye is instantly drawn to the beautiful coastal views via the French doors which open onto a southerly facing balcony. The high ceilinged interior is given a focal point by an original marble fireplace. An open arch leads to a luxurious System Six kitchen with Siemens integrated appliances and black granite worktop. On this floor there is a bay fronted double bedroom having wonderful sea views, a single bedroom and a shower room. The second floor has a large double bedroom with an ensuite bath/shower room, an adjoining snug and its own balcony, accessed via French doors, which again enjoys the most beautiful panoramic coastal vistas.
What the owner likes ...
'The refurbishment of this apartment has been a labour of love for a charity providing jobs for unemployed young people working alongside master craftsmen. I love the attention to detail as every item was meticulously planned and chosen to provide a home full of comfort and style whilst keeping intact the integrity of the building and its beautiful period features. I love the fact that this apartment has 2 floors with superb sea views from the principal rooms and the 2 balconies. It can be furnished traditionally or with a modern style and both will blend seamlessly with their surroundings.'
Bear in mind ...
This beautifully refurbished apartment is set in arguably the most sought after road in Exmouth with wonderful sea views and enjoying a southerly aspect with a communal garden. This property, unusually for a flat, has the added benefit and sole use of a timber garden studio which has light and power. In addition there is one allocated off road parking space. The stretches of golden sandy beach are but a 10 minute walk away so this really is a seaside retreat. This home offers excellent value for money and really must be seen to appreciate the exemplary high specification finish and style afforded.

Madeira indoor and outdoor bowling greens are also popular and only a short walk away. Exmouth train station provides access to the nearby Cathedral city of Exeter and beyond.
