Full Details for 4 Bedroom Property to rent in Exeter, EX6 :
Set in Rolling Devon countryside, the house nestles in its own acreage at the end of a half mile private lane. Though peaceful and tranquil it is far from isolated and easily accessible to the Cathedral city of Exeter and Okehampton along the fast A30 (or more leisurely routes if desired).
The house has undergone an extensive refurbishment programme sympathetic to its structure and era. On entering the boot room with its large hanging cupboard, massive antique settle and signed art, its beautifully tiled heated terracotta floor creates a warm welcome. This leads into a full width double aspect kitchen diner fitted with white cottage style units under solid wooden worktops and breakfast bar. It has a double bowl ceramic sink, built in Miele dishwasher, ceramic hob and fan oven and combi microwave oven catering for all needs. The fully tiled flooring leads through to the rear hallway where you will find a newly installed separate cloakroom and extended utility room with access to the rear garden with washing line. There is also a ground floor bedroom with antique French bed and its own marble tiled ensuite bathroom. Leading from the kitchen, the beamed sitting room is bright and airy with an inglenook fireplace containing an ancient bread oven. A French door leads onto a suntrap paved terrace for summer dining, but the snug all wool carpet ensures it is warm and cosy in winter.
Upstairs the character elm flooring on the landing extends into the double aspect master bedroom which overlooks both the front garden and croquet lawns with shrub and wildflower border and side garden with quince and bramble visited by a resident robin and many nesting birds.
The fully tiled bathroom/wet room borrows from a Moroccan theme has a heated floor and Victorian style radiator, powerful flood shower and double ended bath with hand held shower and bidet and a large double width rectangular basin.
There is a large airing cupboard with eaves storage, and a large very useful built in cupboard on the landing with hanging rails. The landing is large and bright overlooking the ancient orchard at the rear with fitted quality wool carpet leading into the two remaining double bedrooms both bright and airy and overlook the garden at the front.
From a trip into Exeter with its avant garde shopping centre, its magnificent Cathedral, cinemas and theatres, riverside restaurants to suit all budgets, and canal walk, river watersports, to hiking on the moors, surfing on the beach at Widemouth less than an hour away, or windsurfing and kite surfing on the âpondâ at Exmouth, (combine this with a trip to Les Saveurs Seafood Michelin star restaurant, winner of Marco Pierre Whiteâs very first Kitchen Wars and family connected), there are so many things to enjoy about living here. Both natural and cultural the house is perfectly placed to avail of every thing Devon has to offer. There exists a fantastic art ethos having so many inspiring and inspired artists, potters, sculptors, ceramicists and textile artists with many outlets for viewing and sales.
It is surrounded by markedly good restaurants which include fine dining and good pub food. The Fabulous Gidleigh Park where local born MBE Michael Caines has held 2 Michelin stars since 1999 and Bovey Castle where the acclaimed Marc Hardiman works his own kind of magic to name just two of the many that are within a half hour drive. Pubs are more accessible having âThe Old Thatch at Cheriton Bishop and several others to choose from ten minutes away.
Or simply enjoy the pleasure of exploring fields and woods surrounding the house; a swim in the 40â by 20â solar heated pool; or laze in the hot tub under a star filled sky; a BBQ in the extensive Pergola area; or for a more sedentary pastime, croquet on the lawn followed by a cream tea or a Pimms on the terrace? Your choice!
