Directions
From the city centre proceed along Queen Street towards Exeter central station passing the museum on your right hand side, and turn left before the pedestrian crossing onto Northernhay Street. The property will be found after 250 metres on the right hand side.
Situation
Northernhay Street is a quiet no-through road, given its city centre location. The Cathedral city of Exeter has a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities and a variety of private and state schools, and an expanding college and university. There is a selection of theatres, cinemas and restaurants whilst St. David's railway station offers a link to London Paddington in a little more than two hours. Exeter Airport is about five miles away providing regular air services to the UK and international destinations.
Description
Beautifully presented Grade II Listed town house considered to be C18th century featuring characterful hipped gables and many other period features. The property is deceptively spacious and within walking distance of the City centre. Arranged over four floors, 7 Northernhay offers a large ground floor kitchen/breakfast room with period cast iron fireplace and natural slate flooring and a handy utility and downstairs cloakroom. There is an impressive first floor sitting room with working fireplace, twin sash windows and original wood flooring. Arranged over the four floors are four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The stunning main bathroom is linked to the master, but also facilitates bedroom two. This truly is a wonderful well maintained town house in a convenient location with a character feel throughout and a private rear garden.
