The room is on the first floor of the house, at the back. It has a wardrobe, small double bed, chest of drawers, lamp and bedside cabinet. The rent is £585 per month including bills, and the room is available from 7 January 2026. .

There are 4 bedrooms in all - two on the top floor, and two on the first floor, accommodating 4 housemates when fully occupied.

The house has wireless broadband throughout and a 32" TV in the sitting room. All charges for broadband (Sky), TV, electricity, gas, water and council tax are included in the rent. There is a garden, maintained by a gardener throughout the year, with outdoor furniture for enjoying the sunshine, and a dry shed in the garden for storage. The recently refitted kitchen has a washing machine, tumble drier, dishwasher and microwave as well as cooker and a big fridge. The house has a newly refurbished family bathroom with bath, shower and toilet, and there is also a cloakroom with toilet and basin, so plenty of washing facilities.

We will place your deposit with the Deposit Protection Service - one of the Government approved schemes - and will take up employment and previous renting references, but we will cover the cost of this.

We are looking for professional people or postgraduate students - individuals who get on well with others and are prepared to keep the house clean and tidy. If you smoke that's OK, but you must do it outside. Sorry - no pets because of the allergies of other tenants.

Parking: there is a parking space immediately outside the house for one car which is being used by one of the housemates at the moment. Otherwise, you can apply to the Council to request a parking permit for the area around the house. The cost is about £30 per year.

Ben, who was a recent tenant in our property in St Thomas, says "If you are looking for a room in a shared house, I can highly recommend Adrian and Jill Sheen's properties in my experience, they have been kind, fair and honest.

I think it is a huge advantage to be able to talk directly with your landlords and not have to go through agents."

Alex, also a recent tenant, says "You and Adrian have been the best landlords I have ever had by a mile! It has been great to get to know you and to have lived in your house, I think that the fact that I stayed there for over a year indicates that it was the best house I've lived in."

Recent tenants Luke and Sam say: "For the last twelve months Jill and Adrian have been fantastic and approachable regarding any issues, big or small. Always willing to help when possible and if they have not been able to then getting in touch with those who can."

Nick, a recent tenant at this property, says: "It's been great renting from you - you run a very professional business."

Chinwe, another recent tenant at this property, said:
"Thank you very much for always having a listening ear. This room is the loveliest room in the house...I will really miss Exeter."

Another recent tenant said: "I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you for these last two years; you have been exceptional landlords."
