A quintessential example of Regency Gothic architecture, Burwood is an imposing and beautifully restored Grade II Listed residence set within approximately half an acre of enchanting gardens. This magnificent early 19th-century home boasts exquisitely proportioned rooms, a wealth of original period features, and elegant modern enhancements, offering refined living on the western fringes of the vibrant market town of Honiton.
Burwood presents a distinguished double-fronted Gothic façade, showcasing twin gables with quatrefoil detailing, bay windows, and decorative hood mouldings.
Behind its stately exterior lies a home that has undergone extensive, sensitive renovation in recent years, including a new roof, modern central heating system, and a high-specification kitchen—while preserving its remarkable architectural heritage.
The grand entrance hallway—with original staircase and stunning stained and acid-etched glass—sets the tone for the rest of the home, which features ornate ceiling cornices, elegant marble fireplaces, and shuttered sash windows.
Key living spaces include:
Dining Room: A formal and impressive space with French doors, perfect for entertaining.
Sitting Room: A wonderfully light-filled room with bay window, full shutters, and a striking marble fireplace.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room: Designed and fitted by System Six to an exceptional standard, featuring a central island, white quartz worktops, an aga, and ample space for family dining.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a standout feature—a vast bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and access to a luxurious Jack & Jill bathroom complete with a freestanding claw-foot
bath and separate shower. There are four further generous double bedrooms and a newly appointed family bathroom with both bath and walk-in shower.
Burwood is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a superbly renovated Regency Gothic residence, blending period grandeur with modern comfort. Ideally located near top schools, mainline transport, and both countryside and coast,
it is a rare and timeless offering in East Devon’s prime residential landscape.

Burwood enjoys a desirable setting on the southerly side of Exeter Road, offering both tranquillity and convenience.
Honiton, a thriving East Devon town renowned for its antique and literary heritage, offers a full range of amenities including national retailers such as Tesco, Boots, and WHSmith, along with independent shops, restaurants, schools, and a sports centre with swimming pool. The town also benefits from a mainline railway connection to London Waterloo.
Communications are excellent, with the A30 dual carriageway providing swift access to the Cathedral City of Exeter (approx. 16.5 miles), where one finds a wealth of cultural, retail and
transport facilities including a mainline station (London Paddington), theatres, galleries, and Exeter International Airport. The celebrated Regency seaside town of Sidmouth
lies just 9 miles to the south, with its charming esplanade, independent shops, and scenic coastal walks.
Highly regarded Colyton Grammar School
—one of the UK’s top-performing state schools—is just 9.5 miles away, making this an ideal family home in a sought-after catchment area.
Burwood is approached via a smart new concrete driveway leading to a generous parking area and attached garage with electric door and EV charging point.
The private south-facing gardens are truly delightful. A walled, landscaped sanctuary, the grounds include level lawns, an orchard, and an abundance of mature trees, flowering shrubs, and colourful borders. A charming gazebo offers a peaceful retreat with views back towards the house, while a cobbled courtyard and array of outbuildings, including a former coach house, provide excellent storage and workshop space.
