## Description

End terraced 4 bedroom property within the desirable Horseguards site. Ideal family home or investment. Driveway parking and garage. Garden

Addington Court is part of Horseguards, a former barracks site redeveloped in 2000. It is  arguably one of the most favoured and  tucked away central locations. Shopping facilities, the main University campus, and the city’s two train stations for London connections are only minutes' walk away. Exeter is a thriving city with a highly rated and expanding University. It offers a wide choice of cultural,  shopping and leisure facilities.  It  boasts a top flight rugby team and sporting facilities, and there are easy transport links on to the M5, and an International Airport.

The property itself is an end terraced house built over 2 floors with its own driveway parking and integral garage which can also be accessed from the inner hallway. Downstairs is a large living room with separate dining room, and off the kitchen are a downstairs WC and a utility room with  door to the rear garden. The central staircase leads up to 4 bedrooms, two double and two single, the master bedroom having its own en-suite shower room.  An airing cupboard contains the hot water tank and there is access to the loft space from the landing.

Outside, the  property benefits from a well proportioned garden which is laid to lawn and has side access. Horseguards has well maintained communal gardens and there is a nearby playing area for children, with Exeter Cricket Club and  Devon & Exeter Squash & Racketball Club also nearby. 

A great opportunity to purchase an ideal family  home, or equally a super investment opportunity. Early viewing is advised
