COMING SOON TO THE HEART OF EXETER, a selection of brand new premium retirement apartments by McCarthy & Stone.
This is Exeter's most recent development comprising 64 lavishly and thoughtfully detailed one and two bedroom apartments, with a lift to all floors, designed exclusively for the over 60s. Orchid House is ideally situated within St Leonards, on the old Buckerell Lodge Hotel site, with its stunning grounds and protected trees. It offers excellent transport links, with a bus stop right outside the entrance as well as accessible walks to the nearby Riverside Country Park and Exeter's historic quayside.

The complex is currently under construction and in addition to the 64 luxury apartments, at the heart of this development, there is a communal lounge which provides a welcoming social hub to meet with friends and family and enjoy informal gatherings and events with other residents if desired. The shared landscaped gardens are maintained, and provide an outside space solely for use of the residents.

Each of the energy efficient and low maintenance apartments is designed to be high spec, comfortable and homely, and most offer either a patio or balcony space. The development is pet friendly and parking is available for both residents and guests. There is a hotel style guest suite, and an on site manager is at hand during office hours to provide support to the residents, along with a 24/7 call system.

These fabulous apartments are available to reserve from Spring 2025. To receive further information, or to register for the November Discovery Day at Exeter Golf & Country Club, please contact Southgate Estates.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on October 26, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
