Panoramic views across Cockington’s picturesque valley, with its patchwork of rolling fields, are just one of the many highlights of this exceptional detached home, quietly positioned within a peaceful cul-de-sac adjoining the Cockington Conservation Area. Our clients have undertaken a remarkable transformation, reimagining the property beyond recognition from its 1960s origins. The result is a beautifully designed home offering extensive and versatile accommodation of approximately 218 sq m (2,350 sq ft), arranged over three levels. A striking double height reception hall creates an immediate and lasting impression, setting the tone for the rest of the property. From here, the space flows into the impressive kitchen and sitting room, both perfectly oriented to capture the breathtaking views beyond. The upper floors provide four generously sized double bedrooms, offering flexibility for family living or guest accommodation. Meanwhile, the expansive garden level presents a blank canvas, ideal for a variety of uses such as a home office, gym, studio, or additional living space. Outside, the property continues to impress. The tiered rear garden enjoys a sought-after south-westerly aspect, making the most of the stunning outlook and providing the perfect setting for relaxation or entertaining.
Despite its tranquil setting, the property is conveniently located for a wide range of amenities. Torquay seafront, with its coastal views, leisure facilities, and rail station, is approximately a 15 minute walk away. The idyllic Cockington Country Park, extending to around 460 acres of woodland, lakes, and parkland, is quite literally on the doorstep. For everyday needs, local shops on Walnut Road and Old Mill Road are within easy walking distance. Families are also well served, with the highly regarded Torquay Grammar Schools nearby, along with Cockington and Sherwell Valley Primary Schools, all readily accessible from the property.
We’ve loved life on Court Road. Overlooking Cockington, it offers a peaceful, rural feel, yet is just minutes from shops, schools, the station, and beaches.
Leaving is an emotional decision after all the love and care we’ve invested, but we feel ready to downsize, travel more, and begin a new chapter.”
Two sets of French doors with side windows flood the room with natural light and provide direct access to the extensive paved terrace and rear garden. There is also a stylish cloakroom, fully tiled in classic white metro tiles and fitted with a WC and basin. Access to generous under house storage.
To the front, the garden is designed for ease of maintenance, arranged in attractive shingled tiers and complemented by a mature palm. A sloping driveway with inset brick detailing provides access to the garage.
