Description
16 Doriam Close is a generous family home in a highly desirable location in Pennsylvania, just north of Exeter's city centre. It’s in a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac with stunning views and a large garden. It needs some updating throughout but the space is light and airy with lots of potential and is being offered to the market with no onward chain.
16 Doriam Close is a generous family home in a highly desirable location in Pennsylvania, just north of Exeter's city centre. It's in a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac with stunning views and a large garden. It needs some updating throughout but the space is light and airy with lots of potential and is being offered to the market with no onward chain.
Pennsylvania is a safe, quiet, suburban area. Like this home, many of the houses here offer scenic views over the city and the lush Devon countryside. Yet the centre of Exeter is just a few minutes' drive away, and served by frequent buses. With the university on your doorstep (but out of earshot), it's also nicely busy.
Visitors park on the drive in front of the garage. This is separated from the neighbouring property by a mature hedge, and there's room for two or more vehicles. Into the entrance hall, we see three doors - left to the study, straight ahead to the kitchen, or right to the sitting/dining room. There are also stairs up to the first floor.
The study is 18ft deep, with a window facing the front drive. At its other end is a door to a plumbed-in utility room. You can also reach a downstairs loo and the kitchen from here.
Retracing our steps, we cross the entrance hall to the sitting/dining room. At 25ft long, this is the biggest room in the house. Its large patio doors take you to a balcony that stretches across the width of this room and the kitchen next door. Look down and you'll see the sheltered patio below.
If you like a good view, this one will make you smile. Beyond the garden in the mid-ground is Streatham Campus. It's one of the most beautiful university campuses in the country, with landscaped gardens, woodland, and a mix of old and new buildings. On the horizon, you'll see the green hills to the west of Exeter, with Dartmoor about 20 miles away. This is the place to wind down after a long day.
The kitchen shares this great view, as do two of the four upstairs bedrooms. The bathroom windows are frosted, but still benefit from this south- and east-facing prospect. The light just floods in. There's plenty of storage on this floor, with fitted bedroom cupboards and an airing cupboard on the landing.
The back garden is private, surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. As the neighbourhood is well-wooded, you'll see woodland birds and mammals you wouldn't often get in a city garden. There's a patio area here, below and next to the balcony. Under the balcony, some alcoves are set into the brickwork - perfect for storage, or keeping the rain off a weekend barbecue.
Doriam Close is near several green spaces, including Hoopern, Mincinglake, and Duryard Valley parks. All three offer walking trails and a chance to be close to nature. There's plenty of access to the university campus too, always popular with runners and dog-walkers. The gym there is open to the public, as is the open-air swimming pool.
For youngsters, there are several highly-rated state and independent schools in and around the city, including Exeter School and The Maynard. Stoke Hill Infant and Nursery School is less than a mile away. Exeter College is rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted. Cut some trees back and you may even be able to see it from the garden!
