Description

This three-bedroom terraced house is offered with no onward chain and has an elevated position with views across the surrounding countryside. The ground floor includes a dual-aspect sitting room with a stone-effect fireplace, alongside a kitchen and separate dining area with built-in storage. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a shower room with a walk-in shower and vanity unit, and a separate cloakroom. Outside, a paved terrace fronts the property, while the rear garden is arranged on several levels with patio areas, mature planting, a greenhouse and a brick-built barbecue. Outbuildings provide further storage. Residents' parking spaces are available to the front. The house offers scope for updating and personalisation. It is freehold, with oil-fired central heating and mains services connected. A Section 157 housing restriction applies, generally requiring purchasers to have lived and/or worked in Devon for at least three years, subject to possible exceptions and council approval.

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £265,000, this three-bedroom terrace is priced attractively at £284/sq ft, around 19.6% below the local average. That gives buyers a strong starting point for a light update, with dated decoration and flooring to personalise and a terraced garden to clear and improve. The separate sitting room and kitchen/dining area offer a useful layout, while the clean, comparatively current shower room is a welcome feature.

The elevated position, countryside views and established garden planting add character, and the exterior appears broadly intact in the photos. The main practical consideration is the Section 157 restriction: buyers will generally need to have lived or worked in Devon for at least three years, subject to exceptions and council approval.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated paintwork and older floor finishes to give the living areas and bedrooms a more current feel.
  • Clear encroaching vegetation and improve the worn paths and paving across the terraced rear garden, retaining its established planting and greenhouse.
  • Build on the separate sitting room and kitchen/dining layout, with the clean, current-looking shower room already a useful feature.

Key risks

  • Section 157 housing restriction may limit eligibility: purchasers will generally need to have lived or worked in Devon for at least three years, subject to exceptions and council approval.
  • The steep, terraced garden has worn paving and steps, and the timber outbuilding appears weathered.
