Property description

A detached Edwardian house designed by the renowned local Architect, R W Sampson.


The Rowans is an imposing detached house situated in one of Sidmouth's most sought after locations, designed by R W Sampson and constructed by R W Skinner. The property showcases many architectural features typical of Sampson and today retains period features, including Minton tile flooring, timber panelling, doors and architraves, period fireplaces and an impressive staircase. The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hallway with a cloakroom/WC, leading to a 29' kitchen/breakfast room, a sitting room with a bay window and verandah off, a separate dining room and a utility room. To the first floor the master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, and there are two further bedrooms, a main bathroom and a separate WC. On the second floor are two further bedrooms and a shower room.


The house stands on a level plot, with good size lawned gardens to the rear enjoying a south westerly aspect, a good degree of privacy and views to Muttersmoor. To the front there is a single detached garage, secure off road parking for two cars and a lawned garden. Convent Road is a particularly sought after location in Sidmouth, running parallel with Bickwell Valley on the west side of Sidmouth town. The seafront and town centre, with its numerous independent shops, High Street chains, Cottage Hospital, Health Centre, Library, Theatre and Cinema are within half a mile. There are also regular bus services to the surrounding area, a Golf Club, Waitrose Supermarket and numerous Sports Clubs and leisure activities. The Cathedral City of Exeter, with its International Airport, M5 motorway connection and mainline railway service to London is approximately sixteen miles to the west.
