Property description
30 Exeter Road is an impressive four-bedroom period home, positioned just a stone's throw away from a quiet beach. The property benefits from beautifully appointed accommodation arranged over two floors, with neutral decor and tall sash windows to create a light and airy atmosphere. Elegant modern fittings compliment the original fireplaces, cornicing, and other attractive original details to create a thoroughly attractive living space.
The ground floor has two main reception rooms, both of which are oriented to the rear of the house, taking advantage of the impressive southeast-facing elevated sea views. The sitting room has stripped wooden floorboards, a modern fireplace, and a tall sash bay window with a window seat, while the formal dining room provides built-in shelving and storage, and a glass door opening onto the rear patio. At the front, the well-equipped kitchen has modern fitted units in white, a central island with a breakfast bar and integrated appliances, including dual ovens, an induction hob, and a wine cooler. The adjoining utility room provides further space for appliances, as does the cellar. Upstairs, two of the four bedrooms enjoy sea views, one with a door opening onto a sunny balcony. The principal bedroom features a cast-iron fireplace and dual aspect windows, including a large sash window that fills the room with natural light. The first floor also offers a family bathroom with a bathtub, walk in shower, and heated towel rail, plus a separate WC.
The house is set on The Rockstone, a side road just off Exeter Road with ample on-street parking. A gated entrance at the front of the property opens onto a gravel pathway, which leads through the front garden to the entrance at the side. The garden at the front has a brick-built storage shed and raised beds, making it ideal for growing own fruits and vegetables. At the rear, the garden includes a patio area across the back of the house for al fresco dining, with a lawn beyond, border beds and a further seating area at the end of the garden, taking beautiful coastal views.
