A compact two-bedroom terraced home on the Oaklands development, offered with no onward chain and freehold tenure. The property has a generous lounge/dining room with patio doors to an enclosed rear garden, a separate kitchen and cloakroom, and a single garage accessed from a rear lane. The landing offers a glimpse of sea views and useful loft access.
The house is structurally straightforward but in need of modernisation: fittings and decoration are dated, the bathroom is an older coloured suite, and heating is via electric storage heaters. The EPC rating is D and the property would benefit from updating to improve energy efficiency and comfort. The small plot and average overall size make this a manageable project for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize.
Practical strengths include double glazing, off-street garage parking, private garden and nearby local amenities including shops and bus links. Local schools include Dawlish College (Good) and a mix of primary and independent options. Note the wider area shows signs of economic deprivation; the immediate neighbourhood is described as comfortable with low crime and excellent mobile/broadband connectivity.
This is a sensible opportunity for a buyer happy to invest time and budget into cosmetic and energy-efficiency upgrades. With no onward chain, quick completion is possible, making it suitable for first-time buyers seeking a long-term home or investors aiming to add value through refurbishment.
