5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Elm Grove Road, Exeter EX3

Description

A gorgeous, extended five bedroom 1930s semi-detached family home, superbly located in the heart of Topsham. The current owners have lovingly cared for the property for the past 27 years, creating a home that beautifully blends original character with a modern twist. Offering generous living space, a substantial south-facing garden, ample parking and a detached garage, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a family home on one of Topsham's most desirable streets.

The property is entered via a welcoming entrance hallway where an original stained-glass window immediately sets the tone. The living room is positioned at the front of the home and features a beautiful bay window, allowing natural light to flood the space. There is a separate dining room with doors opening directly onto the rear garden, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

To the rear of the property sits a recently fitted, stylish kitchen with breakfast area, also benefitting from doors leading out to the garden. A highly practical boot room and utility area is a valuable addition, complete with a side door providing access to the side garden. The ground floor is completed by a downstairs WC and shower room.

On the first floor there are four generous double bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for growing families or those working from home. This level is served by a modern family bathroom.

The second floor provides a fantastic additional living space, with a spacious landing that could be used as a snug or reading area, a shower room with WC, and a fifth double bedroom with storage in the eaves, an ideal space for older children or visiting guests. Bedrooms to the rear of the property enjoy delightful views, with the fifth bedroom benefitting from far reaching views towards Haldon.

One of the standout features of this home is the plot. To the front, a private driveway provides parking for up three/four vehicles, while the detached garage is a rare and highly sought-after feature within Topsham. The rear garden is a superb size, south-facing and beautifully arranged with a large lawn and a raised decking area complete with an awning, offering welcome shade during the summer months.

Topsham is widely regarded as one of the most desirable places to live in and around Exeter, and this home is perfectly positioned within walking distance of the train station, vibrant high street and Darts Farm. We believe this to be the perfect long-term home for a growing family, ready for its next owners to enjoy for many years to come.
