This top-floor penthouse-style apartment sits in the heart of Torquay, within a gated converted printworks development. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner opens onto a shared balcony and the main bedroom also benefits from private balcony access, giving light and an elevated outlook over the nearby shopping precinct. The block includes an allocated off-street parking space within secure grounds.
Practical features include double glazing, gas central heating, an EPC B rating and modest running costs: service charge £600pa and ground rent £100pa. The layout is compact but well planned with two double bedrooms, a bathroom and useful storage including a cupboard housing the combi boiler.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold, top-floor flat accessed by stairs to the third floor (no lift). The wider area has high crime statistics and is classified as very deprived, so prospective purchasers should assess neighbourhood suitability. The property is well placed for town-centre amenities and public transport, making it a straightforward option for first-time buyers, downsizers or buy-to-let investors seeking town-centre rental demand.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance urban apartment with parking and balcony space. It offers good immediate occupancy potential but requires buyers to accept a compact footprint, stair access and the local area profile when weighing long-term suitability.
