Description
Perfectly positioned just a stone's throw from Exeter Catherdral and its lovely surroundings, this Grade II listed house has an early 19th century rusticated stucco facade behind which lies a bright, well appointed interior.
The accommodation is arranged over four floors and features multi-paned sash windows, two fine marble fireplaces, three cosy wood-burners and four double bedrooms - two with en-suites plus a luxurious 'Jack and Jill' main bathroom.
There are two elegant reception rooms with outlooks to Exeter Cathedral and a well-fitted basement kitchen-dining room with some original ancient steps to Palace Gate that most likely pre-date the current dwelling.
Outside, there is a delightful enclosed courtyard garden perfect for alfresco dining/entertaining and containing a mass of colourful summer shrubs and flowers.
Exeter is an historic city and the main regional centre for the South West. The city centre shops are just a couple of minutes' walk from the property whilst the Quay, with its choice of bars and eateries, less than ten minutes' walk. Exeter has a main-line railway station with direct connection to London Paddington and an International airport.
