Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Exmouth, EX8 :
Coming to the market for the first time in over 20 years, this fine detached Victorian residence of tremendous period charm has been enhanced to a very high standard with a two storey extension and the installation of Solar Panels, both photovoltaic and thermal. With four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and an enchanting garden this is an opportunity not to be missed.
Approach
This attractive Victorian house of traditional construction sits in a large, level plot with gardens wrapping around both sides of the building. The front is approached via a private drive laid to gravel with mature shrub and rose borders. There is ample off road parking for 4+ cars and also detached single garage which has been converted to an office. This retains the original door and mechanism for easy restoration. Wall mounted charging point for electric vehicles.
Agents Note
The current owner has fitted an array of Solar-Photovoltaic panels to the main South facing roof and a Solar-Thermal installation on the East/West roof of the extension.The Solar PV installation qualifies for higher rate FIT Payments - this equates to over £2000 per annum for the next 20 years in addition to the more general savings made via reduced import of electricity from the National Grid. The Solar Thermal equipment has significantly reduced the households' gas consumption - the current vendor has stated a reduction of around 50% when comparing before and after figures.This renewable energy equipment and the use throughout the building of high grade insulation has meant that the property has achieved an EPC rating of \"B\" which is truly outstanding considering the main house was built prior to the year 1900.
