Property Oracle says ..
This four-bedroom terraced house on Portland Street in Exeter’s Newtown and St Leonard’s area presents a mixed bag. Its key strengths lie in its location. Proximity to amenities like Waitrose and Belmont Park, coupled with nearby well-regarded schools (though Ofsted ratings for some are missing from the data), creates a family-friendly environment. The train station is also relatively close, improving commute options. The property itself benefits from a garden offering outdoor space. However, the property’s condition is a factor to consider. While functional, the interior requires modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom appear dated and would benefit from upgrades. The provided photos show a property that appears clean but with tired and possibly outdated décor. Carpets and furnishings appear worn and may need replacing. Ultimately, potential buyers need to weigh the cost of necessary renovations against the benefits of the location and the potential rental income which could be lucrative given the potential for student letting. The lack of square footage information for nearby properties makes a precise comparison difficult, but the price point appears to reflect the current market in the area, factoring in the need for updates. Further investigation into local comparative properties with specific sqft measures would improve the overall analysis.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
