Avondale Road, Exeter EX2

Description

This beautifully refurbished 1930s semi-detached family home offers light-filled and generously proportioned accommodation in a highly sought-after cul-de-sac, just a short walk from the rd&E Hospital. The property has been meticulously maintained by the current owners and combines character features with modern finishes, making it an ideal choice for families. The ground floor includes a welcoming hallway with space for coats and shoes, three inviting reception rooms-one of which could easily serve as a further bedroom-together with a contemporary fitted kitchen, a convenient cloakroom, and direct access to a versatile garden office. The living room is enhanced by a charming original feature fireplace and custom New England-style blinds, while the dining room includes original cupboards and opens into a study/bedroom with access to the rear garden. The kitchen is superbly appointed with integrated appliances, under-unit lighting, a pantry, and adjoining cloakroom facilities.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three generously sized double bedrooms, a comfortable single bedroom, and a stylish family bathroom with a rainfall shower, vanity basin, and underfloor heating. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and a dressing table, while bedroom five provides an excellent single or office space with dual-aspect windows. On the second floor, two additional double bedrooms with Velux windows enjoy wonderful views across the city and surrounding countryside, together with eaves storage.

Externally, the property benefits from a brick-paved driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles, a garage with light and power, and side access to a superb south-facing rear garden. This beautifully landscaped outdoor space features a Porcelanosa patio, an Astroturf lawn, raised beds, and a designated barbecue and entertaining area. The garden also includes a detached garden room with polished plaster walls, power, and broadband, making it ideal as a home office or studio.

Situated in a peaceful cul-de-sac on the edge of Heavitree, this home enjoys excellent local amenities, including Heavitree Pleasure Ground, a thriving high street with supermarkets, independent shops, a pharmacy, hairdressers, and a medical centre. The area is particularly popular with families thanks to its strong selection of nearby schools, such as Ladysmith Infant and Junior Schools, St Michael's Church of England Primary Academy, and Exeter School. Transport links are outstanding, with easy access to the M5, A30, Exeter Central and St David's railway stations, and Exeter Airport, all providing convenient routes in and out of the city.
