A compact studio apartment in central Torquay, tucked on Abbey Road within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and the seafront. The property occupies a period mid-Victorian terrace and benefits from on-plot parking nearby, double glazing and fast broadband — useful for lettings or a coastal bolt-hole.
The accommodation is a single open-plan living/sleeping space with a fitted kitchenette and separate shower room. The flat is small at about 302 sq ft, offered leasehold with c.90 years remaining, and currently has no central heating system (electric heaters assumed). The interior dates to the 1960s–70s in places and will need modernization to reach contemporary standards.
This lot is being sold at Modern Auction with an undisclosed reserve price. Buyers must allow for a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus buyer’s fees and potential additional leasehold or pack costs — read the Buyer Information Pack and budget for these sums before bidding.
Suitable for investors seeking a town-centre seaside let or a single-occupant starter home, the flat’s strengths are location and connectivity. Material negatives to note: high local crime levels, medium flood risk, a high average service charge (£2,000 pa), very deprived local area indicators, and visible need for refurbishment and potential insulation or heating upgrades.
