Large 5-bed period home — ideal HMO or family close to Exeter centre.
Five bedrooms across multi-storey layout
A substantial five-bedroom end-of-terrace on Monks Road, newly renovated and offered freehold. The house retains period character — stained glass, fireplaces and Tudor-Revival frontage — while recent works have updated services and presentation. Spacious reception rooms and two shower rooms give flexible living or multi-occupancy potential.
Set on a small corner plot with a back garden and a garage, the property sits under a mile from Exeter city centre with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and very low local crime. The area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood, making the layout and room count well-suited to rental, HMO or a large family seeking proximity to amenities and transport links.
Positives include affordable council tax, freehold tenure and two practical shower rooms; the EPC is C. Drawbacks to note: the surrounding area is popular with students which affects local character and demand, the plot is small, and some rooms still offer scope for personalisation despite recent renovations. Nearby schools are mixed in Ofsted ratings — a standout Outstanding infant school and two independent schools, alongside some schools rated as ‘Requires improvement’. Buyers should consider intended use (owner-occupier vs investor) when viewing.
Overall, this property offers solid size, character and versatility close to the city centre. It will suit investors seeking multi-let potential or buyers wanting a roomy, characterful home who are comfortable with a busy, student-rich neighbourhood and a small garden footprint.
