16-18 Wilsons Lane, Exeter

A much loved and revered, oft admired piece of the Exeter landscape and history, Summerfield has been adored by the current owner who has greatly enhanced its appeal over the past 26 years.

An exquisite example of a timber Federation cottage with many original features still intact, the garden has been significantly developed and beautified and includes specimen trees providing exhilarating Spring burst, green canopy in Summer, rich rewards in Autumn and permanent structure for winter with sculptural interest. Epitomising the quintessential large cottage garden estate with a tennis court, breathtaking street appeal -in a word-enchanting.

Summerfield cottage operated as a b and b for many years and is geared for entertaining and hospitality as a result. Deep verandahs offer the opportunity to catch or escape the sun's rays and enjoy the garden vistas.

A generous open plan lounge and dining room flows via French doors to the outside and offers a generous volume of space perfect for gatherings and cosy evenings by the fire. Typical of the period, the 4 bedrooms at the front of the home have high ceilings, tongue and groove details and polished boards.

The character of Exeter village is enhanced by Summerfield's presence and all who are lucky enough to enjoy the quiet meander by are the better off for doing so…
