St Leonards, Exeter

Description

Positioned in the heart of sought after St Leonards, just a stone’s throw from Exeter’s historic Quayside, this attractive two bedroom terraced home offers a wonderful combination of period character, modern improvements and beautifully balanced living space. Well presented throughout, the property has been thoughtfully extended to the rear, creating an impressive open plan kitchen/family room which really is the heart of the home.

The entrance hall leads through to a particularly inviting sitting room, where a beautiful bay window floods the space with natural light. A feature log burner provides a lovely focal point, complemented by coved ceilings, picture rails and an abundance of period charm.

To the rear, the property transforms into a fantastic sociable space, with the extended ground floor providing a superb kitchen, dining and family room. The contemporary kitchen is centred around a stylish island, with generous worktop space, excellent storage and a range of integrated appliances. There is ample room for dining and relaxing, while bi-fold doors open directly onto the garden, creating that all important connection between inside and out. A brilliant space for entertaining and family life.

The first floor provides two generous bedrooms, both enjoying attractive wooden flooring and useful built-in storage. Bedroom one benefits from a charming bay window overlooking the front, together with a built-in wardrobe incorporating hanging space. The second bedroom enjoys a pleasant outlook over the rear garden and further built in storage.

The family bathroom is partly tiled and fitted with a bath and shower over, wash hand basin with useful storage beneath and a low-level WC. Built-in shelving and an additional storage cupboard provide some welcome practicality.

Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to offer a lovely setting for relaxing and entertaining. Brick built raised planters, established bedding plants and a dedicated seating area create an attractive backdrop, while a further paved patio provides space for outdoor dining, with an area of artificial lawn completing the garden.
