Description
A distinguished Grade II* Listed property, beautifully situated within a historic building at the heart of Exeter. EPC: D, parking space available under separate negotiation, spacious sitting room.
Situation - Wynards enjoys an enviable position in the very heart of Exeter, tucked away just south of the Princesshay shopping district and within a short stroll of the historic Cathedral. The city provides a wealth of amenities including excellent shopping and dining, a vibrant cultural scene with theatre, cinema and museum, as well as professional football and Premiership rugby clubs. Exeter is particularly well connected, with two mainline railway stations offering direct services to London Paddington and Waterloo. Junction 29 of the M5 motorway lies to the east, providing links to the A30 and A38 trunk roads, and Exeter International Airport is also within easy reach.
Description - Believed to date back to the 15th Century, Wynards is a distinguished Grade II* Listed building of Heavitree stone, sympathetically converted in 1999 to provide unique and individual homes. Arranged around a charming cobbled courtyard, the property offers a tranquil and secure environment whilst being moments from the bustle of the city centre. This particular home combines period character with modern convenience, offering two bedrooms, a light-filled sitting/dining room, a fitted kitchen, shower room and guest cloakroom. Residents also enjoy access to an attractive communal garden and courtyard. Two Zone D parking permits are allocated to the property. Versatile in nature, Wynards is equally well suited as a main residence, a city retreat, or a distinctive investment opportunity.
Accommodation - A striking Gothic arched door leads into the inner lobby and onwards into a bright and welcoming sitting/dining room. This spacious dual aspect room features exposed beams, timber flooring and casement windows. The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, an integrated oven and hob, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher, with space for a washing machine. A rear door opens to the communal garden, with a guest cloakroom conveniently located nearby. On the first floor, a light tunnel enhances the landing. The principal bedroom enjoys a vaulted ceiling with skylight and exposed beam. The second bedroom overlooks the communal lawn and includes fitted cupboards and a character beam. The shower room comprises a corner shower, wc and basin.
Outside - From Magdalen Street, an impressive Gothic timber archway opens into the central cobbled courtyard, planted with raised stone beds and a feature tree. A further archway leads through to the communal lawned garden with mature borders, and a pedestrian gate allows easy access onto Southernhay Gardens and the city centre beyond. To the rear of the building are two secure stores.
