It is not often these days that a Georgian house in need of updating comes on to the Exeter property market and one that is also in a sought-after area makes it particularly special. Hayne House at Silverton in the Exe Valley is just that.
It is an elegant Grade II Listed house which has been in the family of the current owners since 1919 and is need of some modernisation. It has well proportioned reception rooms and the oldest part of the house, which is the former wing adjoining the property, could be extended and integrated into the main part of the house.

Its location, within walking distance of the pretty Exe Valley village of Silverton is a real bonus.
