Description

Riversmeet House is a stunning Grade II listed mansion built in 1845 in a Regency style, situated on the Exe and Clyst estuaries in Topsham. The house boasts impressive architecture and design, with high ceilings, large sash windows, and detailed cornicing throughout. The property has been sensitively modernized while retaining its character, and features a heated indoor swimming pool, two double garages, and approximately 1.9 acres of beautiful and secluded gardens. The house has four well-appointed bedrooms and two modern family bathrooms on the first floor, and a further two bedrooms and a shower room on the second floor. The property also features a 'Widows Tower' with 360-degree views, and there is planning permission to create a small pavilion within the grounds. Riversmeet House has a rich history, having been built on land that was once a former boatyard and believed to be the construction site of HMS Terror, a ship that was discovered in 2016 in remarkably preserved condition.
