White Gable House The South West
A COASTAL CITY OASIS WITH A POOL AND A HOT TUB
White Gable House in Exeter is a Grade II listed property with modern monochrome interiors. It has a city address with lots of outdoor space, and it’s a minimalist home which feels cosy and welcoming. This story of contrasts, along with its proximity to the Devon coast, make White Gable House rather special. Gather for morning coffee and evening meals in the open plan kitchen-diner, testing your culinary skills on the high spec appliances. Relax in front of the log burner in the spacious sitting room, play pool or table tennis in the games room, or tone up on the Pilates reformer machine in the well-equipped gym. Bring the teenagers too, because there are gaming stations and a laid-back cinema room with a 100-inch Smart TV. If they win control of the Sonos sound system, escape for some peace in the garden. Out here, laze on the sun-drenched patio or lawns, make use of the outdoor kitchen and barbecue, and dip into the swimming pool and hot tub. And, with lots of fridge space in the wine cellar, enjoy the fact that you’ll never run out of cold white wine to toast the good life.
At bedtime, the six bedrooms in the main house are uncluttered and calming and there’s an additional double and bunk room in the separate lodge house. The bathrooms are zen-like, with a mix of freestanding baths and wet rooms.
With the city centre just a 15-minute walk away, you have all the culture, shopping and nightlife you could wish for, plus local shops and cafés a mere five-minute walk away. And, with pretty seaside towns and beaches such as Exmouth and Dawlish Warren plus the rugged beauty of Dartmoor a short drive away, life at White Gable House offers you the best of all worlds.
