Offered for sale with no onward chain, this stylish and generously proportioned three-bedroom apartment forms part of Pennsylvania Park, one of Exeter’s most distinguished Grade II Listed Regency terraces. Believed to have been built in 1821, the terrace was famously described by renowned architectural historian Pevsner as “the piece de résistance of Regency Exeter.”
Situated in the highly sought-after suburb of Pennsylvania, the property enjoys an elevated position just north of the city centre, nestled between the historic parkland of Duryard and Stoke Hill. Pennsylvania is regarded as one of Exeter’s most prestigious residential areas, with Pennsylvania Park originally commissioned by Quaker banker Joseph Sparkes, who named the terrace after the American state, a name later adopted by the wider neighbourhood.
The well-presented accommodation offers a wonderful blend of character and modern convenience. The spacious living room features an impressive fireplace as its focal point and French doors opening onto a private walled courtyard garden. A separate modern kitchen/dining room provides excellent space for everyday living and entertaining. There are three double bedrooms, with the main bedroom benefiting from built-in double wardrobes, while the third enjoys the convenience of an en-suite WC. A contemporary bathroom and practical utility/entrance hall complete the accommodation.
Outside, the apartment enjoys the rare advantage of both private front and rear courtyard gardens, providing attractive and low-maintenance outdoor spaces. Residents also have access to a private communal park directly opposite, with a small annual membership fee granting exclusive use and the opportunity to take part in the park’s friendly community events.
This superb apartment is offered to the market with no onward chain.
The property enjoys the rare benefit of two private courtyard gardens. The front terrace enjoys a pleasant southerly aspect, while the larger rear courtyard is perfectly positioned to capture the afternoon and evening sun. Offering a high degree of privacy and seclusion, it provides an ideal space for relaxing and entertaining.
Directly opposite the terrace lies an impressive expanse of beautifully maintained parkland extending to just under two acres. Reserved exclusively for residents of Pennsylvania Park, these attractive grounds have become a focal point for the community, hosting annual events including a summer garden party and fireworks celebration. Residents also have the opportunity to hire the park for private functions.
A modest annual fee of approximately £xx contributes towards the ongoing maintenance of the grounds, ensuring they continue to be presented to an exceptional standard throughout the year.
