COMING SOON - A stunning and unique high end development, with the School House of 14 apartments. Enjoying a fine mix of modern living and period features all with private parking.



Description

Welcome to Richmond Grove, a stunning new high-end development of two new houses and twenty-three new apartments all with private parking set on a quiet residential road near the most direct route into Exeter City Centre from the M5.

The School House consists of 14 high-quality residential apartments that have been created from the converted Georgian period main building of Bramdean school. Set across four floors, the apartments offer contemporary living with open plan living-kitchen-dining spaces and are individual in their own right.

The nucleus of this luxury development is the two linked late Georgian houses that once formed the main building of Bramdean private school, a locally-listed heritage asset. These historic properties and several other existing structures - notably the school's chapel - have been converted following an organic process that has allowed the buildings to dictate how they are divided.

Combined with the cohesive, respectful design approach of the newly built houses, the result is a development that is at home both within itself and among its local surroundings. Bursting with new outdoor amenities - including individual car parking with electric car charging, extensive bike storage, landscaped private gardens, and prioritising ground-level entrances, the development achieves a perfect balance and deliberate gentle contrast with the original buildings' Georgian period setting.

Richmond Grove's diverse range of sympathetically-converted contemporary apartments and newly built homes is a huge asset to the local area. From first-time buyers to those seeking the ideal city centre second home - capitalising on the peaceful location but easy arterial access - Richmond Grove will appeal to almost anyone who wants to enjoy the full yet relaxed lifestyle Exeter has to offer.

Location

Exeter rests at the mouth of the river Exe, surrounded on all sides by beautiful green parks, countryside and the picturesque coastline of the south-west of England. From Exeter, lovers of exploring the natural world will find themselves inundated with attractive local options.

The rolling hills, forests, and stacked stone walls of Dartmoor National Park are only a short distance away to the west, offering hikers and casual walkers alike a stunning unspoilt landscape to explore.

To the east, the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is dotted with quaint towns and villages and a subtly different landscape that runs along the coastline before spreading deep inland. Closer to Exeter, excellent cycle paths enable travel around the charming estuary while you can hop aboard local ferries to Topsham - a historic maritime town famous for its restaurants and sunsets - or Exmouth and its golden sandy beaches, the gateway to the famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast.

It’s not just nature lovers who will find the local area a rich source of opportunities for exploration and entertainment though. From the huge array of water sports options available to the vibrant food, arts, music, and culture scenes, Exeter is the perfect base from which to fully engage with everything the south-west has to offer.

Exeter offers excellent road, rail, and air links to the south-west, the wider UK, and beyond.

By Road, Richmond Grove is set just back from the main arterial route between Exeter City Centre and the M5. This provides easy links with Bristol, Birmingham, Cardiff, and the M4 for London. Alternatively, enjoy a scenic route to London and the south-east along the A30/ A303.

Visit independent hotspots like the recently redeveloped and thriving Quayside with its restaurants, cocktail bars, and sports and water sports facilities. Stop by trendy areas like Fore Street, Paris Street, and Magdalen Road. Or take a stroll down cobbled Gandy Street, allegedly the inspiration for Diagon Alley in the Harry Potter books. The city’s huge range of independent shops rub shoulders with the high-end fashion boutiques and contemporary high street stores of the renovated Princesshay shopping centre, watched over by the glorious gothic peak of Exeter Cathedral. Yet Exeter also offers the chance to live a slower, greener, more relaxed pace of life.

The city’s many green parks and sometimes bustling areas like Exeter Quay are also excellent spots for a relaxed morning walk. You can also choose to get around on the city’s Co Bikes and Co Cars, a fleet of electric and low-emissions hire vehicles.
