2 bed bungalow for sale

The Copse, Newport Park, Exeter, Devon EX2

A two bedroom Park Home on a permanent residential site on the outskirts of Exeter, close to Topsham and walks along the River Exe. Requiring some updating. Small, sunny garden and designated parking space. No onward chain.

This double sized park home offers spacious and comfortable accommodation in an enviable and convenient location at Newport Park, between Exeter and Topsham.

The property has been well maintained over the years with good external decoration, enhanced insulation and an established, easy to maintain garden. Internally, there is the advantage of gas central heating and a relatively modern shower room, but it is fair to say the accommodation now requires updating with new windows, kitchen, redecoration and flooring required. This presents an affordable opportunity to refurbish the property to taste over time and make a lovely home in a quiet area with a friendly and caring community spirit, designed for residents over the age of 50.

A small garden, paved patio areas, a greenhouse and sheds surround the home, and it lies a short walk from the stone wall along the River Exe, from which the views can be enjoyed and even access to the river for the more adventurous!

Services: Mains water (metered), electricity, drainage and gas.
Council Tax: Band A
Local Authority: Exeter City Council
Ground rent under a new agreement: C. £200 per calendar month.
Agent's note: The back door of the property, leading into the kitchen, has a ramp for ease of access.

Newport Park lies conveniently between Exeter and the historic estuary port town of Topsham on the River Exe, with quick main road access to both and beyond to the M5 motorway at Junction 30.

Topsham's picturesque setting, range of independent shops and restaurants, and lively community life make it is one of the most desirable places to live in the Southwest. Once a thriving port and shipbuilding centre, Topsham still retains a strong maritime flavour and there are lovely walks along the estuary, with beautiful sunsets in the west, across the water.

Topsham shopping also offers a vibrant mix of boutiques, galleries, gifts, fine wines and foods, and antiques. On Topsham's outskirts, you will also find Darts Farm, a thriving farm shop, restaurant and retail centre, selling delicious local produce and offering a range of lifestyle shopping.

Topsham's charming passenger ferry takes passengers (and bikes) across the Exe for pleasant walking and pub lunches at two idyllic waterside pubs, the Turf and Double Locks. You can also take short or long cruises to discover the wildlife of the Exe estuary or to Exmouth's sandy beaches.
