A well‑located first‑floor apartment in a gated Waterside development, a short walk from Exeter quayside and the city centre. The apartment offers a bright, open-plan lounge/dining room with three uPVC windows and pleasant communal garden views, plus a modern fitted kitchen. The property includes a private, secure underground parking space and use of well-kept communal gardens — practical benefits for city living.
Accommodation comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom, arranged over an efficient 776 sq ft footprint. The flat is presented in good decorative order and benefits from a very long lease (963 years remaining) with a share of the freehold, making ownership straightforward for first-time buyers or investors. The EPC is C (71) and broadband/mobile connectivity in the area is strong.
Notable running costs and considerations are clear: the annual service charge is £2,605 and heating is by electric night storage/electric wall heaters, which can be more expensive than gas. The double glazing predates 2002 and some internal features (lighting and fixtures) are dated. Crime levels in the area are above average; prospective buyers should factor this into their location checks.
Overall this is a practical, low-commitment purchase for someone seeking a convenient city riverside base or rental investment. It is chain-free and ready to view, offering immediate occupancy or letting potential with modest updating rather than major refurbishment.
