5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Morgans Cottages, The Square, Exeter EX5

Description

Located in the sought-after area of Wimple, this unique and spacious cottage, believed to have been built in the 1900s, offers an abundance of charm and character. Having been the cherished family home of the current owner for the past 20 years, the property has been thoughtfully extended over time, resulting in generous living space that perfectly balances traditional features with modern living.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming entrance hall, with doors leading to a convenient downstairs shower room and WC. To the opposite side of the hallway, you'll find a useful utility room, a door leads through to the kitchen. The kitchen is a real highlight, offering ample space and doors that open out onto the rear, south-facing garden, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living.

From the kitchen, you enter the spacious open-plan living and dining room, ideal for both family gatherings and relaxed entertaining. Additionally, a versatile family room with an open wood burner and doors leading to the garden provides another inviting space to relax or unwind. A downstairs bedroom offers further flexibility, also functioning as an ideal hobbies room, adding to the property's adaptable layout.

Upstairs, the accommodation is equally impressive, with three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a large single bedroom, and a charming room tucked into the eaves, perfect for a children's play area or a practical dressing room. The family bathroom completes the upstairs level, ensuring all areas of the home are well-appointed.

The property enjoys a peaceful location central to the village, with the added benefit of off-road parking for up to four cars and a detached freehold garage, built just 15 years ago. To the front, an attractive lawn with tall trees and hedges ensures privacy, while the south-facing rear garden is the perfect spot to enjoy summer evenings. In addition to the stunning garden, there is an outbuilding currently used as a home office, as well as a handy outside shed for extra storage.

This versatile property is a true gem, offering a perfect blend of space, privacy, and character in one of Wimple's most desirable locations.
