Description

This substantial six-bedroom semi-detached house is situated on the calm corner of Magdalen and Marlborough Roads, a very desirable location in the affluent St Leonard's area of Exeter. Just a short stroll from the charming shopping parade, which features a rich and varied selection of local shops, boutiques, cafes, and the popular Mount Radford pub, this property is perfectly positioned for both convenience and community.

Steeped in late-Victorian to early-Edwardian charm, the property boasts a wealth of period features, including spacious rooms across three storeys, high ceilings, and wide bay windows that flood the interiors with natural light. All rooms are quiet and peaceful.

Its four characterful reception rooms have been adapted to create a large self-contained ground-floor flat, which could easily be reverted to the original fully-integrated format to suit your preferences. This area features original light fittings, bespoke William-Morris-design curtains, and a traditional mains-gas-powered Aga, perfect for culinary enthusiasts.

The whole property could either be an income-generating rental property or reinstated as a commodious three-storey family home.

The property comes with a sizeable south-west facing walled garden and large detached garage.

St Leonard’s is often referred to as the Knightsbridge of Exeter, renowned for its elegant Georgian and Victorian architecture, tree-lined streets, and proximity to the city centre, the River Exe, and Exeter's vibrant maritime quayside. The area offers a peaceful, village-like atmosphere, complemented by easy access to top-tiers schools, the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, the private Nuffield hospital, Exeter Law Courts, Southernhay's thriving business community and St Luke’s campus/medical school (part of Exeter University).

Easy access to transport links, including train stations, the airport, and the M5 motorway, make this location ideal for families and professionals.

5* -

Burgoyne is a first class Estate Agency. The team are all highly professional and friendly too. We received sound advice that enabled us to market our house in the best light. Everyone worked hard to secure our sale and kept us fully informed every step of the way. It always felt like we had a team truly acting on our behalf whilst being entirely honest and realistic.

I could not recommend Burgoyne more highly. If only all estate agents were as honest, reliable and caring.

Thank you John, Lyn and Jemma
