This compact one-bedroom flat in Stanley Court offers low-maintenance living close to St Marychurch Precinct and Babbacombe Downs. Set within a well-presented, three-storey block, the home benefits from a secure entry system, lift access, communal landscaped grounds and on-site parking — practical features for downsizers seeking convenience and comfort.
The apartment is modest in size (approx. 411 sq ft) with a generous lounge/diner, separate kitchen, double bedroom, shower room and a small external balcony. The layout is straightforward and suits a single occupant or couple; the building is clearly maintained externally and provides easy, step-free access via lift and communal hallways.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and a retirement development, so ongoing service charges and lease terms will apply. The flat is described as likely needing standard cosmetic updating rather than major works. Local indicators show very deprived area classification, so prospective buyers should consider wider neighbourhood context alongside the convenience of nearby amenities and good digital connectivity.
For those prioritising low-maintenance, central living near Torquay’s coastal attractions, this apartment offers a manageable, well-located base with basic outdoor space and parking. It also presents straightforward buy-to-let potential given local demand for retirement and compact homes.
