3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A rare chance to acquire a Grade II* listed home of true historical and architectural significance, nestled in a peaceful setting just south of Exeter. Designed in the 1840s by Sir George Gilbert Scott, the architect behind St Pancras Hotel and the Albert Memorial — Pitt House is one of the few remaining examples of his domestic work, built in the early Victorian Jacobean Revival style.
This remarkable residence blends period grandeur with everyday functionality. The upper ground floor welcomes you with a charming kitchen and breakfast room, bathed in natural light through lattice windows with stained glass detailing. Adjoining is a stunning lounge and dining room, featuring an ornate coffered ceiling, patterned tiled flooring, and a grand fireplace. A mezzanine level doubles as a fourth bedroom or study, complete with built-in storage and timber detailing.
The lower ground floor hosts three characterful bedrooms. The principal suite boasts a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite, and arched stone ceiling. A unique library/study space with a brick ceiling and original stone archway opens directly to the courtyard. A separate family bathroom, utility room, and practical storage complete this level.
Externally, the private garden sits opposite the main entrance, a generous lawn surrounded by mature trees. The property benefits from two garages with up-and-over doors, plus additional off-road parking nearby.
Originally extended in the 1880s to include a ballroom and billiard room, Pitt House has served as a military base, boarding school, and was sensitively restored in the 1980s into three homes and six apartments, preserving its rich legacy for future generations.
