An award-winning 5,188 sq ft BARC Architects estuary house with a 200 sq m glazed living pavilion, hydraulic lift, annexe and renewable smart-home systems.
Sanctuary House clears Aveno's Pavello-level threshold through independently recognised contemporary authorship, a powerful protected-estuary relationship, genuine accessibility and an unusually coherent environmental and smart-home programme. The £3m guide is about £578/sq ft on Savills' 5,188 sq ft figure. That blended density includes the architectural setting, terraces, annexe and complex systems and is not a valuation conclusion: the title, 2018 completion archive, signed component measurement and environmental/operating evidence must be joined before an offer.

Identity confidence100%
Sanctuary House, Mount Howe, Topsham, Exeter, Devon
Savills' live original instruction EXS260202 and its current Rightmove distribution name Sanctuary House at Mount Howe, Topsham, EX3 0BG and align on a £3m guide, detached/freehold form, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, 5,188 sq ft, EPC B and Council Tax G. RIBA's project record independently joins the same named Mount Howe replacement dwelling to BARC Architects, its estuary outlook, stone-and-larch glazed pavilion, lift and renewable systems. Savills' exact-property film and the exact-address HM Land Registry-derived record complete a decisive identity chain; the official title, UPRN and current EPC certificate remain buyer-side.
