Summary - FLAT 3, MAPLE COURT, LOWER ELLACOMBE CHURCH ROAD, TORQUAY TQ1 1JH
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact central flat with parking and long lease, ideal for first-time buyers.
Allocated off-street parking and private entrance
A compact two-bedroom ground-floor apartment offering a practical, low-maintenance entry into Torquay living. The flat benefits from its own private entrance, allocated off-street parking and an enclosed front patio — rare conveniences for central locations. Interiors are functional and mostly modern, with a contemporary fitted kitchen, gas central heating and double glazing throughout.
The long lease (960 years) and low annual ground rent (£25, not currently requested by the freeholder) make the tenure straightforward for first-time buyers or investors seeking predictable holding costs. The apartment is chain free and ready for immediate occupation or minor cosmetic updating to personalise the space and increase value.
Be aware of some material considerations: external fabric shows typical Victorian-age wear and may need masonry repointing and timber/metalwork maintenance in time. The property footprint is small with limited communal and garden space, and the lease includes restrictions covering holiday lets and certain pets — this limits rental flexibility for short-term or pet-friendly lets. The location is convenient for Torquay town centre, the harbourside and local schools, but sits within a very deprived local area classification, which may influence long-term resale or rental yields.
