Accessed via a spiral staircase, this remarkable outdoor space enjoys panoramic views across Exeter's skyline, the Cathedral, historic Quayside and the River Exe, providing an exceptional setting for entertaining or simply relaxing above the city.

Further enhancing the appeal of this outstanding home is the benefit of a share of the freehold, together with access to the beautifully maintained private riverside gardens, available exclusively to residents of Colleton Crescent. The property also benefits from an allocated off-street parking space, an additional residents' permit parking space, communal bicycle and refuse storage and smart communal areas with feature chandeliers and stairwell roof-light.

Colleton Crescent is perfectly positioned for enjoying everything Exeter has to offer. The historic Quayside, with its independent cafés, restaurants, bars and waterside walks, is just moments away, while Princesshay and the city centre provide an excellent selection of shopping and leisure facilities.
