Strutt and Parker in Exeter

Exeter, located in the heart of Devon along the River Exe, is a vibrant city with a rich historical past. Encircled by its ancient city walls and centred around a stunning gothic cathedral, the city dates back to pre-Roman times. Today, Exeter combines its historical charm with a modern cultural scene, offering a variety of artisan shops, independent boutiques, galleries, and eateries tucked along its quaint side streets. Just a short distance from the Jurassic Coast, Exeter provides easy access to golden beaches and rugged coastal walks, making it a perfect location for both city and nature lovers.

Exeter's property market reflects its diverse character, offering everything from handsome Georgian and Victorian homes to contemporary apartments and unique Dutch gable-style houses. The average house price in Exeter in Spring 2024 was £301,000, with detached homes averaging £534,000. Terraced properties remain popular, selling for an average of £310,706 over the past year. Though prices have slightly dipped from the previous year, they are still 7% higher than the peak in 2021, making Exeter a desirable place to live, blending rural tranquillity with modern city living.

Exeter is not only known for its beauty and history but also for its unique landmarks and famous connections. The city's Guildhall, dating back to mediaeval times, is the oldest civic building in England still in use. Beneath the streets lie a network of mediaeval passages once used to transport water. Famous former residents include J.K. Rowling, who attended Exeter University, and Coldplay’s Chris Martin, who grew up in the city. Exeter’s rich heritage is also highlighted by “the house that moved,” a 15th-century building relocated to make way for modern development.
