SITUATION Cranford Avenue is located in the desirable 'Avenues' area of the town just over 1 mile to the sea front and a short walk into the town centre. Exmouth offers a comprehensive range of amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and excellent leisure facilities. The area is well-served by transport links, including a railway station with direct services to Exeter, good local bus routes and easy access to the M5 motorway and Exeter International Airport.
ACCOMMODATION 37 Cranford Avenue is a beautifully presented period family home, thoughtfully updated by the current owners to combine contemporary styling with the charm and character expected of a 1930s property.
Set behind a gravel driveway, the property is entered via a solid timber front door opening into a practical boot room, ideal for coats as well as footwear storage. A further door leads into an impressive reception hall featuring exposed timber flooring and a staircase rising to the first floor.
To the front of the property is an elegant drawing room centred around a wood-burning stove with period timber surround, complemented by a bay window and French doors opening onto the rear garden. Adjacent is a further reception room currently arranged as a sitting room, enjoying a bay window with garden views. A separate study, fitted with bespoke storage cupboards, also overlooks the rear garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room has been extended to create an excellent open-plan living space, incorporating a dining area beneath a striking vaulted ceiling. The kitchen is fitted with a contemporary range of cabinetry with granite work surfaces, a Range cooker, integrated dishwasher, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. Opening from the kitchen is a superb garden room with glazed roof lantern and bi-fold doors, providing an excellent outlook across the garden and swimming pool. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a stylish shower room with WC and understairs storage, currently housing a tumble dryer.
To the first floor, a generous landing gives access to three double bedrooms. Two bedrooms are positioned to the front elevation overlooking the garden, including the principal bedroom which benefits from a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room. The family bathroom has recently been refurbished in a classic period style, featuring a panelled bath, wash hand basin, and WC.
A further staircase rises to the second floor where there are two additional bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for family living, guests, or home working.
OUTSIDE Wooden electric gates open onto a gravel driveway with parking for several cars, leading to the front door. A side gate provides access to the heated outdoor pool with paved surround. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, wrapping around the house with a paved path leading to a secluded rear dining area and separate access to the garden room. A detached garage sits in the corner.
