1 Waterloo Road is a nicely presented, traditional three-bedroomed home in the popular area of St Thomas. It's just off Alphington Road, one of the main routes into and out of Exeter city centre. With a park and playing fields right on its doorstep, it would suit a young family or couple.

Like so many of its neighbours, the end-of-terrace house was built in the 1920s or 30s. They're solid, honest homes and this one has a good-sized, fully enclosed back garden. Thirty metres from the front door is the charming Pinces Gardens, with a lovely 45-yard long wisteria arch. The gardens were once a famous nursery, and now house the Birdhouse Cafe several mornings a week. It won't take long to make friends.

The house itself has been improved over the years, and has a nice open feel. The downstairs is open plan, from the entrance hallway to the kitchen and garden. Look up when you're in the hallway and you'll see a stained-glass panel. This is original and was once common in these houses.

There are other original features, too, including a dado rail, picture rails and the upstairs bedroom doors. From the entrance, you'll see the stairs straight ahead, with light coming through the rear kitchen doors. To your right is the open plan living and dining room, with a wood burner in the original fireplace.

The dining area has two exits - an archway to the kitchen and some wooden glazed doors to a utility area. It's a handy spot for storing the kid's bikes and currently has some waist-level wooden shelves. You can also reach the garden here, without going back into the house.

The kitchen has everything you need, and is more spacious than many in the local area. The back of the house is south-facing, so it gets plenty of light through the oversized patio door and windows.

The bathroom and three bedrooms are upstairs - two have bay windows to maximise the light. The master bedroom has two floor-to-ceiling wardrobes either side of the chimney breast, including two handy deep cupboards above eye level.

There's a driveway in front of the house providing parking for one car which is a real bonus compared to other properties. An alley beside the house takes you to the back garden, fully enclosed by the original brick wall. The space is currently used for a seating area, a lawn and a shed. It's all shipshape, but there's plenty of potential for new owners to add their stamp.

This part of St Thomas has a mix of young families and longer-term residents. It's always been a popular place to live because it's safe, friendly and has everything on its doorstep. West Exe Community College is a short walk, as are several primary and middle schools. Nearby Cowick St has plenty of independent shops, including a traditional butchers. If you want to stretch your legs, there's a pleasant walk or cycle down to the quayside.
