Hillside, Nadderwater

Situated in a peaceful and highly desirable hamlet on the outskirts of Exeter, this attractive detached character home offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation extending to over 2,000 sq ft, together with beautifully established private gardens, an orchard, pond and an excellent range of outbuildings. Approached via a private gated driveway, a pathway leads through the gardens to the front of the house, where a covered porch opens into a welcoming entrance hall. The accommodation is particularly well suited to modern family life, with a good balance of generous reception space, four bedrooms and useful ancillary rooms. At the heart of the home is the kitchen/dining room, providing plenty of space for everyday family life and entertaining, with an oil-fired Aga adding to its character and warmth. A separate utility room provides excellent practical space and there is also a ground floor shower room. The impressive 28ft sitting room is a particular feature of the property, arranged over two levels and offering a wonderful sense of space and character. A stone chimney breast forms an attractive focal point, centred around a wood-burning stove, creating a cosy and inviting room. To the rear, the garden room enjoys lovely views over the gardens and has previously been used as a studio, offering flexibility as a further reception room, hobby space or home office. The ground floor also benefits from a double bedroom, making this an ideal option for those looking for flexible accommodation for guests, older relatives or single-level living. On the first floor are three further bedrooms, including two particularly well-proportioned rooms, together with a shower room. The layout provides plenty of flexibility for family living, working from home or accommodating visiting guests. Outside, the property is approached via a private gated driveway, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles and leading to a car port/garage. The gardens are a real highlight, being predominantly laid to lawn and offering a wonderful degree of privacy. Established planting, mature trees, an orchard and pond create a peaceful and attractive setting, with plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, gardening and family enjoyment. The extensive range of outbuildings further enhances the property and includes a large detached garden studio, which could readily be used as a home office, gym, studio or additional recreational space. There is also a separate store/log store and garage, providing excellent storage and practical space.
