Occupying the entire top floor of an elegant Victorian residence in desirable Wellswood, this spacious three-bedroom apartment pairs generous room proportions with classic period detail. High corniced ceilings, stained-glass accents and large windows deliver light-filled rooms and open valley views toward the Warberries hillside. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite, there is a large sitting room, separate dining room and a well-equipped kitchen with useful built-in storage.
Outside, owners share attractive communal lawns, a private walled courtyard approach and one allocated parking space in the residents’ car park. Practical details suit downsizers and commuters alike: gas central heating, excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and convenient access to Ilsham Road’s shops, cafés and amenities. Several highly regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with a long remaining term and an annual service charge (recently £1,400, rising to £2,000 from Sept 2025; typical current figure quoted £2,400). The property sits on the top floor and is reached by internal stairs, so it is not wheelchair-accessible and may be less suitable for those with mobility needs. The EPC rating is D and the original granite walls are likely uninsulated — there is scope to improve energy performance.
This is a character-rich, low-maintenance home with strong village-style convenience and clear scope for cosmetic updating or energy improvements. It will suit buyers seeking light, space and period features in a well-connected Torquay neighbourhood, particularly those looking to downsize without compromising on room sizes or local amenities.
