A compact, well-presented one-bedroom flat in the heart of Exeter city centre, finished to a high standard and ready to move into. The front bay window and high ceilings give the main living space extra light and character, while secondary glazing helps reduce street noise. The modern fitted kitchen and stylish shower room make day-to-day living straightforward for a single occupant or couple.
The property sits on the first floor of a Victorian mixed-use building close to shops, restaurants, the university, hospital and transport links — ideal for commuters, professionals and first-time buyers seeking central convenience. There is a secure external storage cupboard included, maximising usable space in a small home.
Buyers should note a few important facts: the flat is leasehold (approximately 998 years remaining) and there is an easement on the title — legal advice is recommended. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property is on an electricity fuel supply; no gas central heating is installed. The immediate neighbourhood has high recorded crime levels and no private outdoor space.
Overall this is a low-maintenance city-centre home that suits someone prioritising location and contemporary presentation over size and outdoor space. It also offers potential as a compact buy-to-let or pied-à-terre, though purchasers should check running costs and local rental demand carefully.
