A well-presented Victorian mid-terrace in St Thomas offering a compact but efficient layout across two floors. The property benefits from recent modernisation: a refitted kitchen and first-floor bathroom, gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, making it move-in ready for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor looking for immediate let-ready accommodation.
The lounge/dining room is light and spacious for the house size, and the kitchen includes integrated appliances and a boiler cupboard. Upstairs provides two bedrooms plus a small study/nursery — a flexible third space useful for working from home or storage. The enclosed south-westerly courtyard is low-maintenance but very small, suited to potted plants or a seating area.
Practical points to note: the property is a period solid-brick build likely without wall insulation (common for the era), and the plot and rooms are modest in size. The area has good amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but local crime levels are higher than average; factor this into security and insurance choices.
Overall this is a sensible purchase for someone seeking an affordable, centrally located starter home or a compact investment close to Exeter city centre, the quayside and train station. Council Tax Band B and an EPC rating of C (73) support reasonable running costs.
