4 bed detached house for sale

Perridge Close, Exeter, Devon EX2

Description

Tucked away in an exclusive location within the Alphinbrook Conservation Area, Meadowbank is a superbly proportioned four/five-bedroom detached house, extending to over 2,600 sq ft and offering a refined blend of traditional charm and contemporary comfort. Thoughtfully improved by the current owners—including a new roof in 2025—this impressive property combines space, style, and a wonderful sense of calm, making it a truly rare find just moments from the city centre.

From the moment you step into the wide and welcoming hallway, Meadowbank reveals its generous proportions, character and elegance. The ground floor offers an abundance of versatile living space, with three reception rooms arranged to suit both formal entertaining and relaxed day-to-day life. Two of these rooms enjoy the character of open fireplaces, a charming feature. The third room—currently used as a study/snug offers flexibility for guests, hobbies, or working from home.

The open-plan kitchen and breakfast room forms a light-filled, social space fitted with Neff appliances. It is designed for easy family living with French doors that open directly onto the garden, further enhancing the connection to the outdoors.

Upstairs, three of the bedrooms, including the generously sized principal bedroom (with a modern en-suite shower room) offer open countryside views that reach for miles towards and beyond Ide.

Externally, the gardens are delightful, and cleverly landscaped to create distinct areas for dining, recreational activities and peaceful enjoyment. Mature planting and elevated views give the space a sense of privacy and tranquillity, while the summerhouse offers a wealth of possibilities—as a studio, office, gym or additional accommodation. The summerhouse benefits from mains electricity and lighting.

To the front, the property is set behind a well-maintained garden with established shrubs and ample off-road parking on the driveway in addition to the garage.

The quiet and exclusive setting, paired with the property’s generous footprint and elegant presentation, make this a rare find in one of Exeter’s most desirable residential areas.
