Summary - Bracken Court, The Drive, Farringdon EX5 2JD
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Affordable two-bed maisonette with garden, parking and long lease in peaceful Farringdon.
Chain-free two-bedroom maisonette over two floors
A chain-free two-bedroom maisonette in the attractive hamlet of Farringdon, arranged over two floors with its own garden and two allocated parking spaces. The layout offers two double bedrooms and a bathroom on the ground floor, with a first-floor kitchen, dual-aspect lounge/diner and separate WC — practical for shared living or rental use.
The property has double glazing and electric storage heaters; main fuel is electricity. The construction dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and some areas are dated and would benefit from modernisation, making this a good buy-for-improvement opportunity or affordable first home close to Exeter and the M5.
Practical positives include a long lease (162 years remaining), low ground rent (£25) and very low council tax. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working. There is no flood risk and the maisonette sits in a very affluent, low-deprivation rural area with good primary and secondary schools nearby.
Notable drawbacks: heating is electric storage (higher running costs than gas), external walls are cavity with assumed no insulation, and internal decor/fixtures are dated. Buyers should budget for modernisation and possible energy-efficiency improvements. Shared private drainage is in place.
