The Acorns

Located on an exclusive private road of just three properties in the highly sought after Pennsylvania area of Exeter, this substantial five bedroom detached home offers approximately 2,400 sq ft of high quality accommodation. Built in 2000 and significantly upgraded in recent years, the property provides a practical and well balanced layout with generous space, making it well suited to family living and working from home.

The property is approached via a generous block paved driveway, providing ample parking and scope to increase the parking area further if required. The double fronted façade, neatly maintained front lawn and mature planting create a strong first impression. A detached double garage and discreet side access add further practicality. The position is private and quiet, while still being close to the University and within easy reach of Exeter city centre.

The entrance hall sets the tone for the property, with solid maple flooring throughout downstairs and landing, bespoke detailing and a custom bench-style radiator, enhances both function and design along with well-planned storage. The layout then flows naturally through the ground floor. The principal reception room is spacious and features an open stone fireplace with gas fire, a front bay window, and bifold doors opening onto the rear garden. A second bay fronted reception room provides a flexible space, suitable as a family room, playroom or home office.

The kitchen is fitted by SystemSix and is designed as a practical working and social space. It includes a large central island with Star Galaxy granite worktop, incorporating a sink, boiling and cold water tap, waste disposal and induction hob with retractable downdraft extractor. Siemens appliances include WiFi integrated ovens, dishwasher, freezer and full height fridge. Additional features include handleless cabinetry, space for a wine fridge and LED lighting. French doors open to a decked area and the rear garden, supporting indoor and outdoor use. A separate utility room provides additional storage, appliance space and access to both the garden and garage. The ground floor is completed by a cloakroom with travertine stone finishes and underfloor heating.

On the first floor, the galleried landing is bright and includes a full height window, airing cupboard and access to a large partly boarded loft with light, offering potential for conversion subject to the necessary consents. The principal bedroom includes an en suite with travertine tiling, walk in wet room style shower and fitted cabinetry. A second double bedroom also benefits from its own en suite with underfloor heating.

Three further bedrooms provide flexibility for family use, guest rooms or home working. The family bathroom is finished with a freestanding stone bath, separate walk in shower with Merlyn frameless glass screen and drench head, wall mounted stone basin with glass worktop, and WC with Geberit concealed cistern, all with underfloor heating. The bathroom can also be accessed from bedroom three, allowing it to function as either a shared bathroom or en suite.

The large rear garden is private, level and low maintenance, with two timber decked seating areas positioned to catch different times of day. There is mature planting including fruit trees, and a double wooden gate providing optional side vehicle access. The front garden is well kept, and the block paved driveway provides parking for at least four vehicles in addition to the detached double garage, which could be converted subject to planning consent.

Overall, the property offers a well planned family layout, good home working options, and clear potential to extend or adapt further over time, particularly through loft conversion or garage conversion if required.
