Dean Street is one of the town’s oldest streets. Tucked away opposite the large parish church, it’s a pretty residential area which hasn’t changed much in years! The houses are predominantly 2 and 3 bedroom cottages and many are Grade II Listed to protect this glimpse back in time. It’s well located for the town, public transport and schools and suits a range of buyers.
This particular cottage offers good sized rooms, full of character having been lovingly renovated by a former owner with plenty of exposed wood and brickwork throughout the house. The layout is traditional with a comfortable living room complete with wood-burner and a kitchen/diner with room for a table, plenty of storage and the gas fired AGA – a real treat. On the first floor are 2 double bedrooms with exposed floorboards and a bathroom with heated towel rail. A new roof was added complete with insulation back in 2019 and being a terraced cottage, it’s an economical place to run.
The cottage doesn’t have a garden, but a locked alleyway gives access to a handy storage outhouse. A great addition is that a further locked gate leads to Cockles Rise where this cottage has written permissions to use the residents parking (unallocated). On road parking is also found on Park Road/Street & Bowden Hill.

For those commuting it has hassle free transport links into Exeter and for schooling a prestigious community college (Queen Elizabeth’s). In addition, it boasts a brilliant gym & leisure centre for New Year’s resolutions, two supermarkets for the weekly shop and a trading estate for any practical needs.
