A Superb McCarthy & Stone Living Plus Purpose Built One Bedroom Apartment Situated On The First Floor Of This Sought After Development Located In A Highly Desirable Area Close To Exmouth Town Centre And Sea Front
Property Oracle says ..
The property is a one-bedroom apartment located in Exmouth, Devon. It is part of a McCarthy & Stone retirement complex on Douglas Avenue. The complex appears well-maintained, with attractive communal gardens and outdoor seating areas visible in the provided photographs. The apartment itself shows signs of wear and tear, particularly the carpets, suggesting it may require some updating or refurbishment. The lack of a private garden should be noted, although communal gardens are available. The location is convenient, with proximity to Exmouth town centre and the seafront. Several schools are within a reasonable distance, including Exeter Royal Academy for Deaf Education (0.22km) and St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School (0.65km). Exmouth train station is also relatively close (1.41km). However, comparable properties in the area appear to be listed at higher prices, suggesting the listed price of £160,000 may represent good value, especially considering the communal amenities offered within the retirement complex. The absence of plot size information in the property details prevents a more precise assessment of land value.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
