A bright one-bedroom flat occupying the first floor of a Grade II listed terrace on Fore Street, close to Exeter’s shops, cafés and transport links. The home benefits from recent practical upgrades including a new boiler and a secure intercom, plus fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home.
Internally the layout is compact: a combined kitchen/living area with bay window and city rooftop views, a double bedroom and a modern bathroom. The flat’s long lease (928 years remaining) offers security, but the overall internal area is small (around 278–308 sq ft), so the property suits a single buyer or couple, or an investor seeking a centrally located, low-maintenance let.
Buyers should note the building’s listed status, which can restrict alterations and may complicate some works or permissions. The property sits in a lively, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with many students and migrant families; this brings amenities and culture but also a busier street atmosphere and a more transient local population.
Practical positives include very low local crime, no flood risk, cheap council tax, and immediate access to Exeter Central Station and the Quayside. Overall this is a compact, characterful central flat offering convenience and rental potential, best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors who value location and low ongoing maintenance rather than large living spaces.
