This FINE SEMI-DETACHED VICTORIAN HOUSE is now IN NEED OF EXTENSIVE MODERNISATION, occupying a corner plot with versatile living space extending over four levels and retaining a wealth of period detailing. The house has been a loved home for our client’s family circa 48 years, and presents an opportunity to renovate an elegant home in one of Torquay’s sought after districts.

The house is enviably positioned close to Torquay’s Sea Front and Cockington Country Park which covers circa 460 acres of woodland, lakes and meadows. Local ‘village’ shops at Walnut Road are just past the doorstep, whilst Torquay’s Train Station, being just one stop from the main line Newton Abbot with direct links to most major cities, and a selection of highly regarded schools which include nationally recognised Grammar Schools are equally accessible.

We know the house needs a new lease of life, and a blank canvass for those wanting to stamp their own style into a character home. There is so much our Dad loved about the house, and in his own words …… it would take an age to write down, so probably easier to say what I don’t like, and the swift answer is cleaning it!

Our Dad firmly believed we are only custodians of these old houses, and now his tenure is nearing the end, the time has come to pass over the keys to a new family, so they can make similar memories our family have enjoyed.”

By Sea: Torquay Marina provides a safe haven for boats in all weathers, sheltered from the prevailing south-westerly winds.

Regional Cities of Exeter & Plymouth approximately 22 miles and 32 miles respectively. Magnificent Dartmoor National park approximately 12 miles.
