Full Description

Description:

This impressive detached family sized house was built we understand in the late 1930’s of cavity brick wall construction under a tiled roof. The front elevation lies to the west and the rear elevation to the East.

The present owners have lived in this property for some considerable time and have, over the years, ensured the property has remained well maintained and modernised throughout. Some structural alterations have been made to provide additional space resulting in an extra large reception hall, the creation of a breakfast room situated just off the kitchen and a lovely conservatory which takes you nicely out into the rear garden. All rooms have uPVC double glazed windows. A security alarm system is linked to movement sensors in the hall and landing areas plus door and window sensors dotted around the house.

Addressing all the practical requirements of modern day family living with wonderful living and bedroom accommodation, this lovely home must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated.

Location:

Hill Barton Road lies midway between Pinhoe and Middlemoor and almost equal distance between Sainsburys and Tescos out of town superstores. This location is also very convenient for Exeter Business Park in Sowton, the M5, A30 and A38 which, together, provide excellent communication links to the East and North as well as Devon and the neighbouring counties of Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset.

The Cathedral City of Exeter, some 3 miles distance, offers a magnificent array of shopping facilities ranging from major department stores to specialised boutiques, plus countless bars and restaurants not to mention cinemas, theatres, recreational activities and a thriving nightlife. Of late, the city has experienced considerable economic growth, assisted by the relocation of the Met Office and other major companies. The area also benefits considerably from the new city centre, retail and commercial developments in Princesshay and the proposed expansion of Exeter’s international airport which will simply add to enhance communication links even further. The airport lies just five miles east of the city centre and is recognised as an important gateway offering numerous European flights, trans-Atlantic connections and holiday charter flights.
