1 bed Flat For Sale Top Flat, 16a West Avenue Exeter Devon EX4

Purpose built within a three storey house on one of the best roads in Exeter, this one bedroom, high design, top floor property benefits from the ideal location. It is quiet but close to the city (less than a mile), while the university with its beautiful campus and the Northcott Theatre is half a mile away. Devon countryside and parks are within easy cycling distance.

The house and the apartment are both in excellent repair. Parking is on street and trouble free with inexpensive permits renewed annually (£12).

On buying the property in 2004, the present owner had the flat redesigned, rewired and replumbed. Improvements to the property have been made throughout the six years, the latest being a complete redecoration which was completed in February 2010.

The apartment will be sold with vacant possession and there is no onward chain. Fitted carpets and window fittings are included in the asking price.
