Summary - Burnside Court Ridgeway Road, Torquay TQ1 2ND
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Upper-floor home with balcony and a long lease in Torquay.
Two double bedrooms with good room sizes
Set on an upper floor of the Ridgeway Heights development, this two-double-bedroom flat offers straightforward, low-maintenance living with a private balcony and elevated views. The living/dining room is generous for the size, and the modern kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate expense and hassle for a new owner.
Practical positives include a long lease (163 years remaining), gas central heating served by a community scheme, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The building’s communal areas are described as well maintained, and local amenities, schools and Torquay town centre are within easy reach.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property and additional fees may apply for leasehold packs and management. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and external cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation; further insulation or energy upgrades could be needed to improve efficiency. The area is in a more deprived band locally, which may affect long-term value trends for some buyers.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a ready-to-live-in flat with long lease security and decent rental potential, provided they are comfortable with leasehold ownership and potential future energy improvements.
