Description
The modern kitchen was newly installed in 2017 and features high-quality quartz worktops, a Rangemaster gas hob with electric oven, integrated dishwasher and Quooker boiling-water tap, creating a practical yet stylish hub for family life. Further recent improvements include new carpet fitted to the staircase in April 2025.
Externally, the home sits behind a private driveway and front garden, with two gated side access points on either side of the property leading into the enclosed rear garden. This provides a secure and peaceful outdoor space ideal for children, pets and alfresco entertaining. From the property's elevated position there are far-reaching views over the surrounding neighbourhood and beyond, adding to the appeal of this unique home.
Situated on Birchy Barton Hill in the popular Whipton/Heavitree area, the property benefits from excellent local amenities including convenience stores just moments away and larger supermarkets such as Morrisons Daily and Tesco within easy reach. The area is well served by a variety of bus routes with regular services into Exeter city centre and beyond, while nearby Polsloe Bridge and Digby & Sowton rail stations provide further transport options for commuters.
For families, there is a range of well-regarded schools close by including St Nicholas Primary, Woodwater Academy, Whipton Barton Junior and Infants Schools, and secondary options such as St Peter's and St Luke's Church of England Schools - all within comfortable walking distance.
The location also offers quick access to major road links including the A30 and M5, making it ideal for those working locally or commuting further afield. Exeter city centre, with its excellent shopping, dining and cultural attractions, is just a short drive or bus ride away, while green open spaces and leisure facilities are also close at hand.
This well-proportioned and thoughtfully presented home represents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial family residence in a well-connected and highly desirable area - early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate everything on offer.

If your offer to purchase a property is accepted, you will need to satisfy the requirements set out in the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017.

From time to time, we may introduce buyers or sellers to The Mortgage Quarter. Use of their services is entirely optional. If you choose to proceed with them, please be aware that we may receive an average referral payment of £200 for the introduction.
