This Victorian mid-terrace three-bedroom house sits in a cosmopolitan, student-oriented area of Exeter (EX4). The property is freehold with two reception rooms, a bay-fronted lounge, downstairs WC and a low-maintenance garden — a straightforward layout that works well for rental sharers or buyers wanting room flexibility.
The house offers clear value through location and size: about 1,008 sq ft across multiple storeys, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for students or professionals. The council tax band is low, and the property is close to shops, buses and local amenities, supporting steady demand in this neighbourhood.
Important drawbacks are honest and material. The interior requires modernisation and there are signs of clutter and potential damp in living areas. The building’s cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, glazing install date is unknown, and there is a single bathroom — all factors that will affect refurbishment cost and tenant comfort.
For investors or buyers comfortable with a renovation project, the house presents an opportunity to add value through modernisation, insulation improvements and redecoration. For owner-occupiers, particularly first-time buyers or small families, the layout and garden offer practical living but expect investment in repairs and upgrading to bring the property up to contemporary standards.
