Exeter, a historic Cathedral City, is home to a thriving university, excellent public and private schools, and a wide array of shops, restaurants, and leisure amenities. Highlights include the Princesshay Shopping Centre, John Lewis, Waitrose, several theatres, and the award-winning Royal Albert Memorial Museum. For sports and fitness enthusiasts, the David Lloyd Club at Sandy Park, home to the Exeter Chiefs Rugby Club, along with numerous gyms, sports centres, and recreation grounds, provide ample options.

Rowhorne House is ideally situated for access to the University of Exeter and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital. Exeter St David’s mainline railway station is just 4 miles away, offering regular services to London Paddington in just over two hours, as well as connections to London Waterloo. The nearby M5 motorway ensures excellent road links to London, the Midlands, and beyond, while Exeter International Airport, located to the east of the city, caters to travellers from further afield.

The area boasts a range of highly regarded state and independent schools, including Queen Elizabeth’s School in Crediton, Exeter School, The Maynard School in Exeter, and Blundell’s School in Tiverton. For lovers of the outdoors, Dartmoor National Park is within easy reach, offering endless walking trails and welcoming pubs.

THE PROPERTY
Rowhorne House is a beautifully presented Edwardian property set in an elevated position with far-reaching countryside views, just 2.5 miles from Exeter city centre. The house offers a lovely balance of period character and modern comfort, making it a welcoming and practical home for family life.

Inside, the property has been thoughtfully updated while retaining many original features, including fireplaces and decorative detailing. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, finished in a classic shaker style with a central island, Everhot cooker, walk-in pantry, and adjoining utility room. There’s plenty of space for a dining table, and French doors open onto a west-facing terrace, ideal for enjoying the garden and evening sun.

There are two south-facing reception rooms, both with feature fireplaces and views through the veranda across the gardens and surrounding countryside. A third reception room, currently used as a study, also has a fireplace and could serve a variety of uses. The ground floor also includes a cloakroom and a boot room.

Upstairs, a generous landing leads to the five double bedrooms, a shower room and a well-appointed family bathroom (which can also be accessed directly from bedroom 3 as an en suite), all of which have wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a gated driveway with ample parking. The house is surrounded by mature gardens, with a west-facing terrace accessed from the kitchen - a great spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. The south-facing veranda offers a peaceful place to sit and enjoy the views over the garden, paddock, and neighbouring countryside.

Beyond the garden is a stock-proof fenced paddock, which has its own separate access from the road. In total, the grounds extend to approximately 4.42 acres, offering space and flexibility for a range of uses.

Outbuildings include a detached, triple garage.
