The property benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, and is offered freehold with an average internal floor area (approx. 886 sq ft). Its location gives easy access to local shops, bus services and link roads to Exeter and Torbay, while several primary and secondary schools are within reach.

The fabric and fixtures are essentially functional but likely to need updating to meet contemporary energy-efficiency and decorative standards. The rear and front gardens are small to modest in size and require typical maintenance.
This property suits a family or purchaser seeking a reasonably priced, well-located home with scope to improve energy performance and modernise interiors. It represents a practical buy with solid everyday amenities nearby, and potential to add value through sympathetic refurbishment.
