Offered to the market with no onward chain, this first-floor apartment at Royston Court presents an excellent opportunity for a cash buyer looking for a renovation project or potential investment. The property is in need of renovation and offers a well-proportioned layout comprising one bedroom, a living room, kitchen and bathroom, with the added benefit of residents' parking and access to a shared green area. With the opportunity to modernise and add your own stamp, this could make an appealing project for an investor or buyer seeking a property with scope for improvement. Please note, the property is being sold to cash buyers only.
The location is particularly convenient, with a variety of shops and everyday amenities within easy reach. Sainsbury's, Aldi and Lidl supermarkets are all accessible, alongside a selection of independent convenience stores and local facilities along Whipton Village Road.

The area is also well served by local schooling, with Whipton Barton Infant and Nursery School, Whipton Barton Junior School and St James School all within easy reach, while Stoke Hill Infant and Junior Schools are also conveniently located. Regular bus services provide access to Exeter city centre, the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital and the University of Exeter, making the property well suited to those requiring convenient access to key local destinations.
For commuters, both Polsloe Bridge and Pinhoe railway stations are nearby, providing connections into Exeter and onward mainline services towards London and destinations throughout the South West. The M5 motorway and A30 are also readily accessible, further enhancing the property's appeal for those travelling by road.
Overall, this property offers an opportunity to acquire a one-bedroom apartment with no onward chain, residents' parking and genuine scope for renovation, in a convenient Exeter location. The properties appeal is for cash investors, developers or buyers looking for a project, subject to the necessary works and any relevant permissions.
By law, we are required to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all potential buyers and we take this responsibility very seriously. If your offer to purchase a property is accepted (subject to contract), you will need to satisfy the requirements set out in the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017. To comply with these obligations, we work with an independent third-party provider, Coadjute, to complete id verification, aml checks, and source of funds checks. A non-refundable fee of £27 plus VAT (per person) applies for these checks and Coadjute will handle the payment for this service. These anti-money laundering checks must be completed before we can send the memorandum of sale to the solicitors to confirm the sale.
As a regulated Sales Agent, we are required to be part of an approved redress scheme. We are members of The Property Ombudsman, which is a government-approved scheme providing independent dispute resolution.
From time to time, we may introduce buyers or sellers to The Mortgage Quarter. Use of their services is entirely optional. If you choose to proceed with them, please be aware that we may receive an average referral payment of £200 for the introduction.
Stamp Duty Land Tax (sdlt) may be payable on your purchase. We advise speaking with your solicitor or legal representative to confirm what, if any, amount is due based on the latest government guidelines.
