Sellers Insight Within moments of walking in through the back door, we were hooked, turning to see the first hint of the great views, framed by the Tudor inspired arch…. What is so surprising is that you get no inkling at all as you drive to the house, or from the outside. It’s only when you get to see the other side you get to appreciate the magic of what the elevated position gives. It’s not just a view , it’s a whole landscape…ranging over the Blackdown Hills, the Wellington Monument in the distance, across the end of the valley and west out to glimpses of Exmoor. And such big skies!

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.

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. There is a good choice of schooling within easy reach, including the primary school in Christow, and independent schools such as Stover School, Exeter School, Exeter Cathedral School and The Maynard.

Seller Insight “When we first discovered the property, it was the setting that captured our hearts: the generous space, total privacy, and the rare privilege of direct access into the forest. We’re close to the beach, the train station, Exeter and the M5 all within easy reach, yet it feels like a peaceful world of its own. The house itself was calling out to be loved. It was tired and neglected, full of potential and character. It needed us and we’ve poured care, time, and joy into bringing it back to life. Nearly seven years on, it sings quite literally, alongside the birds that now fill the garden and forest. This home is so much more than bricks and mortar, it’s a way of life. Winter evenings in the hot tub under a frosty, star-filled sky; log fires crackling in the lounge or dining room while we gather for Christmas dinner and quiet mornings with a cup of tea under the holly tree, watching deer wander through the woods. We’ve loved growing our own fruit and vegetables, collecting fresh eggs, and enjoying the company of visiting wildlife including dormice, hedgehogs, foxes, deer, even the occasional pheasant casually strolling past the potting shed. The garden is alive with birdsong and bees, dragonflies flitting over the pond, and the comforting scent of roses as you arrive home. There are memories in every corner: summer days on the deck with family and friends, autumn evenings around the brazier, sports days and hide-and-seek in the garden, breakfasts with Vincent the vole and Peter the pigeon outside the window. The cellar has been a calming retreat for crafts and exercise, while the summerhouse has hosted many happy guests. We’ve enjoyed the balance of countryside and community, with dog walks at the beach, trips with the grandchildren to Haldon Forest Park, and lunches at nearby Kenton Park Estate or Powderham Castle. We’ve always said that Big Friendly Lodge gives you space — space to think, to grow, to be. Whether you want quiet or company, projects or peace, this house welcomes it all. It’s a home that adapts to you. Why are we leaving? Simply because it’s time. We’re getting older, and we want to pass this beautiful home on while it’s still full of life and in great condition, with a happy heart and ready for its next chapter.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

To bring our children up in a beautiful valley in the countryside where there was no light, noise or air pollution was a fantastic opportunity. Having the freedom to roam the woods, streams, paddocks and orchards, and observe the wildlife was an experience that will hopefully last a lifetime. Being in the heart of Devon means we have enjoyed access to beaches on the north and south coasts and the moors, while being close to Exeter, the bright lights of city life are never far away. The changing seasons and tranquillity of Higher North Coombe have afforded us a unique chapter in life whilst earning a living and upgrading the properties for future generations. The stillness, peace and richness of the flora and fauna are only appreciated by being here. We have loved it. *     The History Historical records suggest that this site has been occupied since Saxon times. Following the Norman Conquest, the land is thought to have been granted to Ralf de Pomaria, a Norman soldier who fought alongside William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings, becoming part of a larger estate established during that era. With its blend of period charm, flexible accommodation and captivating outdoor spaces, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy an exceptional lifestyle in a setting defined by tranquillity, privacy, and timeless rural elegance. Area Stockleigh Pomeroy is a charming rural parish nestled in the heart of Mid Devon, known for its beautiful unspoilt countryside, rolling farmland and peaceful village lifestyle. The next-door village of Cheriton Fitzpaine also boosts two thriving pubs with the Ring of Bells being known particularly for delicious repasts and local real ales or ciders. It’s a lovely community with a well-regarded primary school and numerous clubs covering sporting, art and cultural activities. Despite its tranquil setting, the area is well connected - just a short drive from the historic market towns of Crediton and Tiverton and within easy reach of Exeter, offering excellent schools, amenities, and transport links. Another benefit of this property is its proximity to the well-regarded Blundells School, which offers a reduced fee for families living within a 10-mile radius, and this property qualifies for the reduction. With its rich heritage, strong sense of community and picturesque surroundings, Higher North Coombe is the ideal location for those seeking a quiet, country lifestyle without sacrificing convenience.
