Property Description
Situation
Topsham is an ancient port situated 4 miles south east of the cathedral city of Exeter on the beautiful Exe Estuary. The town is steeped in history and famed for its ship-building past and the Dutch architecture found in the older part of the town and in particular The Strand. With easy commuting and access to the M5, only a 5 minute drive away, Topsham is also well served by rail. The useful branch line operates between the coastal town of Exmouth 7 miles away and Exeter St David's, connecting it to the national network. Exeter airport is some 5 miles away.
Today, Topsham is considered a special place to live and boasts excellent local amenities including a school, outside swimming pool, bowling green, tennis courts, doctor's surgery, sailing club, extensive range of independent shops together with numerous pubs, cafes and highly regarded restaurants. It is also popular for its boating, cycling routes, antiques centre and bird watching nature reserve.
The property has a rich history with the terrace previously being named Riversmeet Terrace. Dr William Ashford moved into 3 Riversmeet Terrace in the early 1900s and set up a GP practice which he ran from his home. During WW1 it was used as a hospital for soldiers who had been injured in war. The hospital closed in March 1919 and was eventually turned into two maisonettes. In 2013 the property was transformed back into one house. The current vendors have stylishly renovated parts of the property and extended the rear.
