Station Road, Beechcroft, EX20

A ground floor apartment set within an impressive Victorian Gothic mansion, one of just five properties in the building, and located within easy reach of Exeter now that the rail connection is in regular use. The building itself has a strong presence, and this apartment reflects that character inside, with high ceilings, large windows and a notable sense of light throughout. The apartment benefits from a private non shared entrance and a much larger than average size at 133sqm (1432sqft).

The main living space is a combined lounge and dining room, where a wide bay window looks out over the garden. Oak flooring runs underfoot, adding warmth to a room that already feels generous in scale. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke cream units, solid wood worktops and a Belfast sink, along with a gas-fired Aga and integrated slimline dishwasher. It’s a practical layout that suits everyday use while staying in keeping with the style of the property.

There are two bedrooms, both large doubles. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, with oak flooring, built-in storage and another large bay window. The second bedroom also benefits from fitted storage.

A distinctive feature of the apartment is the lower ground level, accessed internally via original granite steps. Here, two substantial rooms and a WC are arranged around a light well, allowing natural light in. This space offers flexibility—whether for storage, workspace, a gym, cinema room or occasional additional accommodation.

Back on the ground floor, a sun room or potential 3rd guest room overlooks a private courtyard garden with raised beds, a perfect little sun trap to enjoy outdoor dining & privacy with a door leading out to the wider grounds. The property includes parking for one vehicle, along with additional guest parking, and comes with a one-fifth share of the freehold.

Overall, this is a home with real presence and individuality—far removed from a typical flat—combining period architecture with practical living space in a well-connected setting.

Leasehold information: The new owners will enjoy a 5th share of the freehold with no ground rent to pay.  There is a charge of £100.00 per month per flat that includes upkeep of the garden, insurance and accountancy and associated costs for the self management company.
