An attractive 1930's family home, set in a beautiful garden in the heart of St. Leonards.
Nestled in a sought-after and peaceful road in the heart of St. Leonards, Trelawne is an attractive family home offering a wealth of charm, character, and tremendous potential. While the property retains its traditional period features, it is in need of some modernisation, and sits within a beautiful southerly facing garden.
Built in the 1930's the property offers just over 1,900 sq. feet of flexible family accommodation. Upon entering, a welcoming entrance hall has a useful cloak area and WC under the stairs, and leads into the spacious reception rooms. The sitting room is generously sized, with a delightful double aspect over the garden. The dining room, equally well-proportioned, also benefits from a double aspect and large windows that fill the room with natural light. At the rear of the property, the kitchen, while functional, offers good space and opportunity for modernising, with a separate pantry and an adjacent breakfast room. The ground floor is completed by a further WC and storage cupboard.
Upstairs, the first floor accommodates four bedrooms, each offering light and airy accommodation with attractive views over the garden. The principal bedroom is spacious, with built-in storage, with the second bedroom enjoying its own double aspect. The remaining bedrooms offer flexibility, ideal for a growing family, home offices, or guest rooms. As well as the bathroom and additional WC, the upstairs also includes a workshop room (giving access to the loft) that could be converted to an additional single bedroom or an office/study.
The property is superbly positioned and tucked away in approximately a quarter of an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens, with a wonderful front lawn, feature pond, and mature borders that have lovingly been cared for and created over the owners' 50 year ownership. The driveway leads to a detached garage and summer house, offering ample storage space. There is also a garden shed and workshop, ideal for extra storage or hobbies.
Trelawne is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a character home in a highly sought-after Exeter location, with the potential to modernise and create a truly bespoke family home. With its spacious interiors, excellent gardens, and proximity to the city's amenities and private schools, this property presents a rare opportunity for those looking to put their own stamp on a home.
