QUALITY FIVE BEDROOM STAVERTON BUILT 1930'S THREE STOREY PROPERTY IN A PREMIER RESIDENTIAL LOCATION JUST 1 MILE FROM CITY CENTRE
BORDERING ST LEONARDS CLOSE RIVER WALKS/RD&E ETC.
EXTENSIVE LEVEL GARDENS
EXTENDED GROUND FLOOR WITH LOUNGE, DINING ROOM AND MORNING/FAMILY ROOM
DRIVEWAY WITH PARKING FOR UP TO 3 VEHICLES
PVCU DOUBLE GLAZING
GAS CENTRAL HEATING
BEAUTIFULLY MAINTAINED AND HIGH SPECIFICATION HOME
A RARE OPPORTUNITY NOT TO BE MISSED
Lying just 1 mile from Exeter City Centre in a broad tree lined road amidst a selection of high quality housing. It is easy to see why this address is so popular with urban professionals as it has convenient access for Exeter's finest schools, the RD&E Hospital, Nuffield Hospital, Devon County Hall, Riverside Parks and Walks and yet is so close to the vast array of amenities in the City Centre.
Bordering St Leonards which today is a bustling and vibrant community with some of the finest homes in Exeter. This is due to the excellent facilities that are to be found in the neighbourhood which include some of the best state and private schools in Devon together with the ' boutique style villageshops' in Magdalen Road.
These lovely 1930's homes were built by a developer of particularly high regard known as Staverton. The Staverton home \"oozes\" quality from every corner with its high specification finish from the period and as such they have long been a sought after property within the City and rarely become available for purchase. The situation just off Topsham Road provides quick access into the City by public transport, car or even foot. Links to the motorway are readily accessible from this location, with a mainline station within easy access. This property has been carefully and thoughtfully extended providing generous receptions room, five bedrooms and potential for further adaptation to provide a master suite in the second floor. If you combine all of this with the beautiful long and mature sunny garden you can see why this property has not been marketed for sale for over 40 years, testimony to the lifestyle that may be enjoyed here. An internal viewing is essential to appreciate.
