This recently refurbished two-bedroom flat on Acland Road offers a straightforward city-centre investment or an easy city base. The open-plan living area and modern kitchen deliver practical, low-maintenance accommodation across approximately 700 sq ft. The property is chain free and benefits from a tidy red-brick apartment block in a lively part of Exeter.
Currently let for about £15,500 per annum with a tenancy in place to July 2025 (with arrangements indicated extending occupancy to September 2026), the flat suits a buy-to-let purchaser seeking immediate income and minimal initial works. The leasehold tenure has c.89 years remaining — long enough for lending in many cases but worth checking specific mortgage criteria.
Location is a clear draw: a short walk to Streatham Campus, abundant local shops, cafés and public transport. Practical points: council tax is very cheap, mobile signal is excellent, and broadband is average. Note the wider area scores as deprived and local crime levels are very high, factors that will affect tenant profiles, insurance and resale appeal.
Overall, this is a practical, recently upgraded city apartment that will appeal most to investors or buyers wanting a low-fuss urban property. The main drawbacks are the leasehold status (89 years), high local crime and an area-classified level of deprivation — all important when assessing long-term yields and exit options.
