An elegant Grade II Listed Regency house situated in the most prestigious crescent in Exeter

Set within a private road in an historic crescent of twelve villas built in 1820, Belmont House is a beautiful Regency Georgian villa. The restoration works have been finished to an exceptionally high standard, preserving all the period features. There are marble fireplaces, original cornices, sweeping curved staircases and beautifully proportioned windows and high ceilings.

The grand portico entrance leads in to the first floor entrance hall with sweeping staircase and doors to the yoga room, library and two beautiful south facing lounges. Stairs lead down to the kitchen / dining / living room which has direct access out onto the front garden via three double doors. The kitchen has a good range of units in a white gloss with solid oak worktops, with inset ceramic sink, stainless steel 6 hob unit and oven, and integrated dishwasher. The open plan dining / living space is of great proportion and is perfect for every day family life and entertaining. There is also an office, utility / laundry room, cloakroom, and gym on the ground floor.

The top floor comprises five generous bedrooms, the master enjoying an ensuite shower room, far reaching views to the front aspect as far as the Haldon Hills and floor to ceiling built in wardrobes. There is also a family bathroom and a further shower room.
