This Victorian detached cottage is a substantial renovation project with clear value drivers for a cash buyer or developer. The property benefits from recently fitted windows and a new roof, reducing immediate external expenditure, and sits on a large plot with outhouses and off-street parking. It is within 500 yards of Wellswood Village and Ansteys Cove Beach, in a much sought-after residential area of Torquay.
Internally the property requires a complete refurbishment and currently has no service connections, so the buyer should expect a full project: mechanical, electrical, plumbing and finishes will all be needed. The current layout offers an open-plan lounge/diner, kitchen and utility area on the ground floor, with scope on the first floor for four bedrooms and two bathrooms—or to reinstate two separate 2-bed cottages subject to planning permissions.
The house is chain free and forms part of a new select development, presenting potential for substantial uplift once renovated. Its period stone façade and traditional features provide strong character that will reward sympathetic restoration. Buyers should note the renovation scope and cash-only suitability; professional surveys and planning advice are recommended before committing.
