Set on an elevated plot in Preston (Paignton), this detached bungalow delivers genuine coastal living with panoramic sea views across Torbay. The staggered layout offers flexible accommodation for family life or multigenerational use: two principal living rooms, a generous kitchen/diner, four bedrooms (two en suite) and useful utility and cloakroom spaces. The southerly rear garden, terrace and composite deck are designed to maximise the outlook and sunshine.
Practical strengths include ample off-street parking, a large plot with private lawned areas and a handy under-house workshop. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, a modern boiler, cavity-filled walls and fibre broadband to the street. Being sold chain free, it suits buyers who want a prompt move and the option to reconfigure or adapt rooms to their needs.
Buyers should note a few material points: the home dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and, while well maintained, some updating may be desirable to modernise finishes and the older double glazing. Council Tax is Band F, so running costs will be higher than average for the area. These factors are reflected in the property’s potential as a comfortable family home with scope for value-adding improvements.
Overall this bungalow will suit families or buyers seeking a coastal residence with versatile living spaces, substantial outdoor areas and strong sea views. The combination of position, plot size and flexible accommodation creates clear scope to personalise and enhance the property.
