Countess Wear Road, Exeter, EX2 6LR

Designed to make the most of its elevated position and exceptional waterside setting, this individual home is arranged over split levels, with many of the principal rooms enjoying far-reaching views across the River Exe and surrounding countryside.

The south facing balcony and adjoining terrace provide wonderful spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply sitting back and enjoying the ever-changing river scene. The house has been thoughtfully arranged to create a strong connection between the internal living spaces, gardens and river beyond.

A further highlight is the detached garden outbuilding, currently arranged as two rooms and offering excellent versatility as a home office, studio, gym or creative space, both rooms enjoying beautiful river views.

The property is entered at upper ground floor level into a welcoming entrance hall. The sitting room is a bright and well proportioned principal reception room, with an attractive outlook over the River Exe and direct access onto the south facing balcony, the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or evening drink overlooking the water.

The outside space is undoubtedly one of the property's greatest attractions. To the front is a garage, providing valuable off-road parking and storage. To the rear, the gardens extend from the paved sun terrace immediately adjoining the house, gently descending towards the river bank. Enjoying a southerly aspect and direct frontage onto the River Exe, the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and provide an extraordinary setting for outdoor entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the changing seasons.
