Superbly positioned home only 2.5 miles from the edge of Exeter with wonderful gardens, versatile accommodation, and uninterrupted views over its 21 acres, Exeter and beyond
Description
Kentlands enjoys an elevated position looking out over its wonderful gardens and grounds whilst inside offers a great deal of flexibility with the possibility of a self-contained annexe.
The entrance hallway enjoys a pleasant view out over the rear courtyard and leads into the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room. The sitting room is a wonderful room with an impressive, feature fireplace with inset wood burning stove, exposed beams and double access leading into the incredibly light, south facing conservatory, from here you look out over the established front garden, pond and along the valley. The kitchen/breakfast room is clearly the heart of the home and offers a wide range of wall, base and drawer units alongside a breakfast bar and a perfectly placed sink to make the most of the views. Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a possible self-contained annexe with its own entrance and comprises a kitchenette/utility room, bathroom, double bedroom with an adjoining conservatory overlooking the rear courtyard.
Stairs rise to the first floor which offers a fabulous, south facing principal bedroom which benefits from generous proportions and features a walk-in dressing room, an en suite bathroom and access to a further bedroom/dressing area or nursery. On the other side of the landing, there is a further double bedroom with built in wardrobes, a single bedroom and a family bathroom.
Gardens and Grounds
The gardens and grounds at Kentlands certainly do not disappoint and being with an impressive approach via the electric gated drive which is flanked by a lawn and fruit trees to the right and leads to a large parking area and double garage. To the front, the south facing garden is simply stunning - full of colour with the sound of running water from the pond.
Behind Kentlands is a private courtyard and beyond this is a pretty summer house and the kitchen garden. Clearly a labour of love, there are raised beds, a polytunnel tunnel and a soft fruits cage. The views from here are breath-taking, down through the valley and across Exeter. In total, there are about 21.61 acres of gardens and grounds including two paddocks to the east and a further field located to the north side. Please note that the fields to the north are subject to a public footpath which runs through them.
