Rosebarn Avenue, Exeter
Guide Price £550,000 (Tenant Fees)

A three-bedroom detached house occupying a generous plot in a highly popular residential area of Exeter, close to the University. The property, on the market for the first time in sixty years, requires refurbishment throughout and there is great potential for extension (subject to necessary planning consents), offering an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to create a home to their own specification. A particular feature is the large, mature rear garden, while the property also benefits from driveway parking and an attached garage.

THE PROPERTY

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and is approached via an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor. On the ground floor there are two separate reception rooms, comprising a spacious, dual aspect sitting room and dining room. The sitting room enjoys a pleasant outlook across both the front and the rear garden, while the dining room is positioned towards the front of the house. The kitchen also enjoys a rear aspect and benefits from a larder cupboard and side access. 

On the first floor are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a generous double and the bathroom has been modernised to include corner shower cubicle and fully tiled walls.

Outside, the property is set back from the road behind a tidy front garden with driveway access to the garage. To the rear is a standout feature of the property: the large and established garden, extending around 40m from the property. It is well maintained; predominantly laid to lawn with a wide variety of mature shrubs, trees and planting. The size of the plot provides plenty of scope for keen gardeners as well as space for children and outdoor entertaining. An attached garage provides useful parking or storage space and is complemented by a driveway to the front.
