Seller Insight “We fell in love with East Court Farm the moment we arrived. Tucked away down a private lane, it offered the peace, privacy and sense of escape we had been searching for. Once through the gates, it feels as though the outside world simply disappears. The house has a wonderful atmosphere – warm and welcoming in winter with its log burners, yet naturally cool in summer thanks to its thick stone walls. Over the years, we've carefully restored and enhanced it, preserving its character while introducing thoughtful modern additions, including solar panels with battery storage and renewable hot water. Life here has always revolved around nature. From spring wildflowers and abundant wildlife to star-filled skies free from light pollution, every season brings something special. Our son grew up exploring the land, we’ve enjoyed keeping a small flock of sheep, and countless walks begin straight from the doorstep. Despite its wonderfully secluded setting, Tiverton, Exeter, excellent transport links and highly regarded schools are all within easy reach. East Court Farm has been more than a home to us—it has been a sanctuary, and we hope its next owners will cherish it just as much as we have. Morning walks across your own land, evenings beside crackling inglenook fireplaces, family gatherings around the Aga and peaceful moments enjoying uninterrupted countryside views all combine to create an exceptional way of life. Whether welcoming extended family, working from home, keeping animals, cultivating vegetables, or simply escaping the pace of modern living, this is a home that effortlessly adapts to every stage of family life.”

Situated in one of Exeter’s most prestigious residential addresses, Victoria Park Road is renowned for elegant period homes and leafy surroundings, whilst enjoying close proximity to the city centre and Exeter School. The setting offers a rare combination of architectural beauty and convenience. This distinguished Grade Il Listed townhouse, believed to date from the Georgian era with later Victorian additions, is an exceptional example of classical Exeter architecture. Handsomely presented with a stucco-rendered facade beneath a slate roof, the property unfolds over four beautifully proportioned floors, including basement and attic levels, offering great potential for multigenerational living and enjoys a desirable east-west orientation that welcomes natural light throughout the day. Having been cherished by the current owner for more than two decades, the house has been thoughtfully and sympathetically restored, preserving an abundance of original character whilst introducing subtle refinements suited to modern family living. Elegant period detailing remains at the heart of the home, including intricate Georgian joinery, decorative cornicing and ceiling roses, picture and dado rails, original working shutters, graceful staircases and a collection of fine fireplaces, notably the exquisite Adam-style examples within the principal reception rooms. The accommodation is both versatile and beautifully balanced. From the impressive reception hall, three elegant reception rooms provide superb spaces for entertaining and everyday living. The drawing room is particularly striking, centred around a magnificent floor-to-ceiling bay window overlooking the walled rear garden, complete with original working shutters and exceptional ceiling height. To the rear of the property, the garden room opens onto a private balcony with steps descending to the gardens below, creating a seamless connection between house and garden. The lower ground floor hosts a generous kitchen/breakfast room designed very much with family life in mind, offering ample space for dining and informal seating. Additional practical features include a storeroom with original wine bins and a tandem double garage. Arranged around a handsome galleried landing, the first floor provides an impressive principal bedroom suite with adjoining dressing room, alongside three further double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with separate shower. The second floor continues to impress with two additional bedrooms, a bathroom and a wonderfully atmospheric sitting room/snug, enjoying far reaching views towards the surrounding hills beyond the city. SELLER INSIGHT “Living at 7 Victoria Park Road has given me the best of Exeter life, combining a peaceful, private setting with easy access to the city centre, Cathedral, and the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of Magdalen Road. Despite being so central, the house feels wonderfully secluded. The house has been a fantastic home, offering flexible space that has adapted easily to different stages of life. Whether entertaining friends, hosting gatherings or enjoying quieter days, there has always been plenty of room. The garden room in particular is a favourite space, filled with natural light and overlooking the garden. The walled garden is a real haven and surprisingly private for such a central location. The mature planting attracts an abundance of wildlife, and I have loved watching the many birds and squirrels that visit throughout the year. A particularly useful feature has been the Victorian side extension, which provides independent access to the upper floors without passing through the main house. This worked brilliantly as my family grew up, giving older children a little more independence, and could equally suit someone looking to run a business from home or create a separate workspace. I have also loved how walkable everything is, with excellent schools, parks and city amenities all close by. What I will miss most, however, is the character of the house itself. Its period features, generous proportions and sense of history create a warm and welcoming home that has been a joy to live in.” Outside The approach to the property is equally impressive. A wide entrance from Victoria Park Road leads to an extensive brick-paved driveway providing parking for up to four vehicles, whilst elegant stone steps with wrought iron railings rise to the front entrance. To the rear, the beautifully enclosed walled garden offers a peaceful and private retreat, thoughtfully landscaped around a central lawn with brick pathways and richly planted raised borders filled with flowering shrubs and seasonal colour. A sheltered seating terrace beneath the garden room provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining, with direct access into the kitchen through French doors. Framed by mature planting and stone walling, the gardens extend to approximately 50’ x 43.5’ (15.5m x 13.2m), creating a wonderfully secluded oasis in the heart of the city. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains exceptionally well connected, with Exeter city centre less than a mile away, excellent rail links to London from both Exeter Central and St David’ s stations, easy access to the M5 motorway and Exeter Airport offering regular connections, including flights to London City Airport.

SELLERS INSIGHT Manor House found us when we were giving the housing market a much-needed rest whilst on holiday locally. The moment we walked through the door we were aware of the warmth and peace. This unmistakable atmosphere has continued over the last 15 years. The beautiful garden brought joy and fruitful fulfilment to our retirement years. Finally, the peace and genuine friendliness of the village is priceless. STEP INSIDE Manor House offers the best of both worlds, a tranquil setting often described as the perfect slice of Devon, yet only 4 miles from a walk on the beach at Lyme Regis. Dating back to the 16th century, this Grade II listed home is rich in character and history. High ceilings, abundant natural light and generously proportioned rooms are a hallmark of this delightful home. A formal dining room, complemented by a separate breakfast room, offers flexible dining options for both family gatherings and more intimate occasions. The beautifully appointed kitchen, with its impressive dual-control electric Aga, provides a warm and inviting focal point, a true centrepiece to the home. From here, a stable door opens onto a patio with views stretching down the garden, perfect for alfresco dining or morning coffee. A discreet utility cupboard ensures everyday essentials are neatly tucked away. The sitting room is an inviting space to unwind, featuring an inglenook fireplace with wood burner, ideal for cosy evenings, or simply a spot to enjoy a book and admire the outlook from the attractive front aspect. Upstairs, the character of Manor House continues to shine. The principal bedroom is a generous retreat where history meets comfort, featuring a striking moulded stone arch and a stained-glass window that reflect the home’s heritage. Despite its historic features, it remains a practical and inviting space with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom. The three additional bedrooms are all spacious doubles, each with its own character and charm. The second bedroom is especially appealing, with views across the gardens and the added benefit of an en-suite shower room. A further well-appointed shower room serves the remaining two bedrooms. STEP OUTSIDE Sitting in a beautiful position opposite the historic village pond (known locally as Combpyne Harbour), The Manor House enjoys private, secluded gardens and woodland extending to 2.7 acres. A convenient driveway sits alongside the house, complete with an EV charging point. The gardens immediately surrounding the house are level and beautifully landscaped, with lawns bordered by established shrubs, trees, and flowering plants. Pathways meander through the grounds, leading to terraced areas of woodland that run the full length of the property, a haven for wildlife and a place of complete tranquillity. One of the lower pathways, known as The Nuns’ Walk, pays homage to the property’s historical and ecclesiastical past. As you wander past the summerhouse, a stone archway opens into a productive area of garden set aside for fruit and vegetables, complete with a useful store and workshop.

Presented by James Cooper - Part of By Design’s network, with more than 25 years’ experience in the South Devon premium property market. Introduction Lillies is a striking contemporary home in a wonderfully peaceful position on the edge of Christow, within Dartmoor National Park and looking out across the Teign Valley. There is a calmness to the house that is immediately apparent. Light pours in through large expanses of glazing, the views are drawn into the main living spaces, and the layout has been designed to feel open, easy and sociable. Yet this is not simply a quiet retreat. Lillies is also a great house for entertaining, with generous open plan living space, terraces, bi-fold doors, a built-in wood fired oven and a natural flow between inside and out. It is the kind of house that works just as well for slow mornings and peaceful evenings as it does for parties, family gatherings and long summer lunches. Set in around 2.67 acres, with gardens, paddock, woodland, a triple garage and a separate studio, Lillies offers space, privacy and flexibility, sitting on the edge of Christow village, while still being in easy reach of Exeter, the A38, A30 and M5. The Inside The house has a distinctive contemporary design, with white rendered elevations, honey-coloured stone and a slate roof with deep eaves. Inside, the feeling is light, open and calming, with floor to ceiling windows helping to frame the outlook and bring the outside in. The main living space sits at the heart of the house. The sitting room, dining area and kitchen/breakfast room work together beautifully, creating a sociable layout that feels relaxed and practical for everyday life, while also being ideal for entertaining. The sitting and dining areas are interlinked and share an exposed stone wall with a double-sided fireplace, giving warmth and character to the contemporary interior. Large sliding doors open directly onto the terrace and garden, so in the warmer months the house can open up and flow naturally outside. One of the more unexpected features is the study space, accessed via a hidden bookshelf door off the living room. It is a lovely detail and gives the house a sense of fun, while also providing a useful quiet space for working from home, reading or escaping from the busier parts of the house. The kitchen/breakfast room is generous and well planned, with plenty of space around a large central island and a wide oak work surface for informal dining. It has a relaxed country feel, with farmhouse-style units, built-in electric appliances and a slate tiled floor, but the layout keeps it firmly part of the main living and entertaining space. A real highlight is the built-in wood fired oven, perfect for pizza, roasts or relaxed cooking whatever the weather. The bi-fold doors beside it open directly onto the rear patio, making this a brilliant space for hosting, with food, drinks and guests moving easily between the kitchen and outside. Also on the ground floor are a utility room, boot room and cloakroom, which are all valuable additions for a home with land, gardens and plenty of outdoor space. Upstairs, the part-galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite includes a large dressing room with built-in wardrobes, an en suite bath and shower room, and its own balcony overlooking the garden, grounds and the views beyond. The guest bedroom has an en suite shower room, while the two further double bedrooms are served by the family bath and shower room. Two of the bedrooms also have access to a further balcony, again making the most of the outlook. The Outside Lillies is approached down a lane, with a gated turn-off leading into a large gravelled parking area with space for several vehicles. One of the real strengths outside is the garage building. This is a substantial detached structure and far more than just garaging. On the ground floor there is a triple garage, providing excellent storage and parking, but the scale of the building means it could lend itself to a wide range of future uses, depending on someone’s needs. It could work well for car storage, bikes, workshop space, a gym, hobbies, or potentially something more ambitious, subject to any necessary permissions. Above the garage is a really spacious studio with its own shower and WC. This gives the property a huge amount of flexibility. It could make a fantastic home office, creative studio, guest space or ancillary accommodation to the main house. There may also be potential for it to be used as a holiday let, subject to the necessary permissions. The gardens wrap mainly around the eastern side of the house, where a paved terrace looks over the lawn and out towards the paddock beyond. The lawn is bordered by post and rail fencing, creating a natural divide between the immediate garden and the land. There is also a further paved terrace to the front of the house, which faces west and enjoys the evening sun, but it is the rear garden that really adds to the way the house can be enjoyed. From the kitchen, bi-fold doors open directly onto a large patio area, creating a natural entertaining space that works wonderfully, especially with the built-in wood fired oven. From here, a sloped path leads up to a level lawn, where there is a summer house with power. This could work well as a garden store, home office, studio or simply a quiet garden room, depending on how a new owner wants to use the space. A further path leads down the side of the property to a covered seating area, ideal for sitting outside when you want to escape the sun or enjoy the garden in a more sheltered spot. Together, these outside spaces give Lillies a lovely balance. It is peaceful and calming day to day, but also a brilliant house for entertaining, with space for summer lunches, drinks with friends, family gatherings and pizza evenings whatever the weather. Behind the garage is a small area of woodland and the paddock lies beyond the garden and is bounded by a stream along the northern side. Altogether, the gardens, paddock and woodland amount to approx 2.67 acres. Location Lillies is tucked away, but not isolated, on the western side of the Teign Valley within Dartmoor National Park. Christow village centre is approximately 0.7 miles away and offers a good range of local amenities, including a community shop, doctor's surgery, a primary school, church, pub and community hall. The surrounding countryside is a major part of the appeal. The property sits close to Tottiford and Kennick reservoirs, with Dartmoor, the Teign Valley and open countryside on your doorstep, making this a wonderful area for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors. Moretonhampstead is around 6 miles away and offers further day-to-day amenities, while Exeter city centre is approximately 10 miles away, providing a much wider choice of shops, restaurants, schools, transport links and cultural facilities. The property is well connected by road, with the A38 Devon Expressway just 7 miles away, the A30 around 8 miles and the M5 motorway within 10 miles. Exeter St David's station, around 10 miles away, offers regular high-speed services to London Paddington and Waterloo, while Exeter Airport is 15.5 miles away.

Sellers Insight “I will be very sad to leave Lion Court Lodge. This has been my much-loved home for 34 happy years, and I have always treasured the peace, privacy and tranquillity that comes with living on Dancing Hill. The views are something I will miss enormously. Waking up to the wildlife, with deer, woodpeckers and the dawn chorus, has been a real privilege. Some of my happiest memories have been spent around the swimming pool. On warm summer weekends, it has always been a wonderful gathering place for children, family and friends. Swimming and entertaining after dark, with the pool lights glowing and the stars overhead, has felt quite magical. After 34 years, the time has come for me to downsize. Lion Court Lodge now feels ready for a new family to enjoy everything it has to offer and to make their own special memories here.” Step Inside – The Main House Built for our clients some 34 years ago to exacting standards, Lions Court Lodge is a remarkable individual home, designed from the outset to provide generous and flexible accommodation for two families while making the very most of its elevated position and far-reaching views towards Somerset countryside including Glastonbury Tor and the Mendip Hills.

It is fitted with a range of units, integrated appliances and an oil-fired Aga, with ample room for a table and chairs for informal dining. A practical utility room provides useful additional workspace and direct access outside. The home was clearly designed around its setting, and this is particularly evident on the first floor, where a second sitting room connects to a stunning glazed viewing room with a small balcony. This exceptional space enjoys panoramic views across the gardens, countryside, Glastonbury Tor and the Mendip Hills, with air conditioning installed to ensure comfortable year-round use when the sun shines. There are a choice of principal bedrooms on this floor, including one with direct access onto the viewing room and a further double bedroom with en-suite shower room and wonderful views.
