Description

Dunsford Hill House, a distinguished detached residence from the 1930s, offers an expansive living space of just under 3,000 sq ft. Having been meticulously cared for by the same owner for over three decades, this four-bedroom home is ready for new occupants to infuse their personal style and potentially make updates that enhance its appeal. Nestled in a serene location with panoramic views of Haldon Hill and the lush Devon countryside, the property presents a unique blend of rural tranquillity and city accessibility, being just two miles from Exeter's heart. The surrounding area boasts excellent transport links and community amenities in the charming village of Ide. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a grand entrance hall that sets an impressive tone, characterized by original wood panelling and a striking staircase. The living spaces include a spacious reception room with captivating countryside vistas, flowing seamlessly into a dining area perfect for gatherings. While the kitchen has been recently updated with modern appliances and ample workspace, there remains potential to further enhance it according to personal tastes. Upstairs features four sizeable double bedrooms, each offering stunning views. The principal bedroom comes equipped with its own shower facilities while the remainder share a conveniently designed family bathroom. Additionally, an attic room provides excellent storage or could be transformed into an office or extra bedroom pending necessary permissions. The south-west facing garden serves as another highlight, meticulously landscaped on just under one-third of an acre with tiered terraces and vegetable patches – ideal for those with green thumbs or who appreciate outdoor aesthetics. The property also benefits from a private driveway, significant parking area, and integral garage. With opportunities for both cosmetic updates and potential extensions (subject to planning), Dunsford Hill House stands as a promising investment for families seeking character-filled living within easy reach of urban amenities.
