This nine-bedroom property located on Polsloe Road in Exeter presents a mixed investment opportunity. Its strong points include a location convenient to highly-rated schools and several train stations, suggesting good potential for attracting tenants and benefiting from high demand in the area for family homes and student accommodation. However, based on the pictures, the property’s condition is somewhat below expectations for a property in this price range. The interior requires significant updating and modernisation, impacting the overall appeal and potentially necessitating investment to enhance rental yield or resale value. The lack of any substantial garden, or any outdoor space whatsoever, is a noteworthy drawback. Moreover, the list price of £760,000 should be critically examined. Although the property’s size is substantial, the apparent need for repairs and renovations, combined with the absence of a detailed comparative pricing analysis (for example, with the price per square foot for comparable properties) suggests the asking price may be somewhat optimistic. A thorough survey and potentially professional valuation would be recommended before purchase to validate the price and scope of the needed work. The property might be suitable for someone seeking a large property for conversion or refurbishment who is willing to undertake the necessary work to raise its value and desirability.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
