2 bed flat for sale

Water Lane, River Meadows Water Lane EX2

Tenure: Leasehold

Set in a highly sought after waterside position on the edge of Exeter’s historic Ship Canal, No.52 River Meadow enjoys an elevated ground floor setting with far reaching views across the canal and nearby riverside landscape. Just a short stroll away lies Exeter’s vibrant Quayside, with its array of independent cafes, restaurants and waterside walks, while the city centre and Cathedral are also within easy reach, offering excellent shopping, transport links and cultural attractions. The location perfectly combines peaceful waterside living with the convenience of city life close at hand.

The apartment itself is beautifully presented and has been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners, benefitting from a modern fitted kitchen and upgraded bathroom, along with the added advantage of gas connected to the property, something many neighbouring apartments do not enjoy. The accommodation flows well, with a bright open plan living space designed to take full advantage of the outlook, creating a warm and welcoming feel throughout. There are two well proportioned double bedrooms.

One of the standout features of this apartment is the superb private terrace, elevated above the canal and offering a wonderful space to sit out, relax and enjoy the picturesque waterside views. It is a real extension of the living accommodation and a feature that truly sets the property apart from many others in the development.

The property also benefits from a shared double garage, providing half of the space for secure storage or parking, along with plentiful on street parking nearby.

River Meadow presents a fantastic opportunity to enjoy some of Exeter’s most desirable apartment living, close to the quay and walking distance into town.

Exeter is the cathedral city and capital city of Devon. The city is on the River Exe about 37 miles (60 km) northeast of Plymouth and 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Bristol.

Exeter was the most south-westerly Roman fortified settlement in Britain. Exeter Cathedral was founded in the mid-11th century. During the late 19th century, Exeter became an affluent centre for the wool trade. After the Second World War, much of the city centre was rebuilt and is now considered to be a centre for modern business and tourism in Devon and Cornwall. Famed for its world class University.
