Property description
A quirky, open plan and well presented loft style 1 bedroom apartment, located in a handsome Grade II listed house which is centrally located in the popular coastal village of Starcross, the property enjoys fantastic views of the Exe estuary.
DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
Wonderfully located, Flat 3 offers truly breathtaking views of the Exe estuary and the rolling hills beyond. Immaculately refurbished, the apartment boasts a great sized Living Room that sits open plan with the Kitchen, giving a fantastic sense of light and space. Many original features are retained, such as sash windows to the front and rear and exposed brick walls that are a continual theme running through from the Living Room area, to the double bedroom located towards the back of the apartment. The apartment also has the advantage, where space is premium, of a car parking space to the rear of the building, with side pedestrian access to the front.
Ideally located to the nearby Starcross trains station, Exeter city centre is no more than a 10 minute train journey away, as are the nearby beaches of Dawlish and other amenities such as shops and local schools. More immediately to Starcross, there is a local convenience shop, pub, filling station and pharmacy. The apartment currently has a lease of 127 years remaining, with a ground rent cost of £37.50 per year(2010). We highly recommend an early viewing of this fine apartment, to fully appreciate its location and superb views.
Coming from Exeter into Starcross, 1 The Strand is found on the right hand side as the road narrows, opposite the car park.
