Large plot with parking near Torquay seafront, ideal for multigenerational living.
Freehold Victorian semi with period features and high ceilings
A substantial Victorian semi on quiet, tree-lined Bampfylde Road, offered freehold and presented in good order after long use as a guest house. The property provides flexible accommodation over three floors with four to five bedrooms and a large footprint totalling about 2,758 sq ft, high ceilings and original period features that give generous proportions and strong curb appeal. Off-street parking for around five cars and an average rear garden add practical family space in a town-centre setting close to the seafront, marina and local amenities.
This house suits buyers seeking a large family home, multigenerational living or those wanting a home-and-income opportunity. The building benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, en-suite bedroom fittings when it traded commercially, and ready broadband and mobile connectivity. The layout currently reflects guest accommodation, so some internal reconfiguration may be desirable to create a conventional family flow or to reinstate lettable rooms.
Important considerations: the listing records only one bathroom and the owners are de-registering the property’s guest-house status, so prospective buyers should verify bathroom provision and any planning or licensing implications for future commercial use. The local area scores high for crime and very deprived socio-economic indicators, which may affect rental yields, resale expectations and insurance costs. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, period detail and potential on offer.
