A compact three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Torquay offered as a freehold — ideal for first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the market. The house has a large open-plan lounge/dining space, a bright modern bathroom, and double glazing fitted since 2002. A private rear garden provides outdoor space despite the small plot.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, good broadband and mobile signal, and straightforward street-level access with no steps. Local amenities, schools with Good Ofsted ratings, bus and train links, and Torquay town centre are all within easy reach, supporting day-to-day convenience and potential rental appeal.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the area records very high crime and is classed as very deprived, and the property sits on a small plot with no garage or front garden. The stone walls are likely uninsulated, ceiling heights and room sizes are modest, and the house will suit buyers prepared for limited space and possible future upgrading. Price point and freehold status give scope for renovation and added value for buyers ready to invest.
Overall this is a practical, budget-friendly home for a buyer prioritising location and affordability over generous space. It suits someone wanting a manageable project or a straightforward first purchase close to transport, shops and schools, while being realistic about locality and size limitations.
