Set on the top floor of a handsome Victorian terrace, this one-bedroom flat offers bright, characterful living close to Exeter city centre. South-facing sash windows fill the reception room with daylight and frame views over the attractive communal park at the heart of Powderham Crescent. The layout is straightforward: entrance, living room, separate kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom — a compact, comfortable home for a single occupant or couple.
The property sits in a mixed students-and-professionals neighbourhood, making it equally suitable for a first-time buyer or an investor seeking steady rental demand. Its traditional features — high ceilings, a period fireplace and original brickwork externally — provide charm and potential to enhance value with modest cosmetic updating. The building is chain-free, which can speed a purchase.
Buyers should note practical matters: tenure is leasehold; heating details require clarification (electric heating is listed but main heating is also recorded as gas boiler and radiators). The flat is in a solid-brick building likely without modern cavity insulation and some internal fittings appear dated, so there is scope for improvement and energy-efficiency upgrades. Council tax is very cheap and flood risk is nil.
Overall this is a sensible, well-located one-bedroom offering clear upside for someone prepared to refresh the interior. Its proximity to city amenities, excellent mobile and fast broadband make it a pragmatic choice for first-time buyers, city workers or landlords targeting the local lettings market.
