Description

9 Regents Park is an exquisite Grade II-listed Georgian townhouse, offering 4,083 sq ft of beautifully arranged living space over four storeys. Located on a quiet private road, the property benefits from access to a communal green, providing a peaceful yet central position just moments from Exeter’s vibrant city centre.

Brimming with character features throughout, the welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious drawing room, the dining room, and kitchen with a breakfast bar which opens into the dining room, creating an open feel that could be adapted to create a fully open plan room. A bright conservatory at the rear further offers delightful views across the private rear garden.

The first and second floors comprise a sitting room to the front aspect, with five well-proportioned bedrooms, and two bathrooms, offering ample accommodation for a family.

On the lower ground floor, a self-contained garden apartment provides a separate accommodation that is ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or potential rental income. Whilst linked to the house internally, the independent apartment includes two bedrooms, a sitting room, kitchen, and bathroom, along with direct access to the enclosed rear garden.

The rear garden is a delightful enclosed walled garden, beautifully landscaped with a variety of mature borders and a level lawn, with a patio and path leading to the rear gate. A double garage at the back of the garden opens onto a further private lane. Steps descend to the courtyard of the lower ground floor apartment, offering a private outdoor space.
