A well-presented three-bedroom cottage tucked in a quiet cul-de-sac just off Paignton town centre. The house is freehold, has gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and a modern fitted kitchen and bathroom — practical features that keep running costs straightforward and the property move-in ready.
Internal space is modest but arranged efficiently: a sitting room, separate dining room, compact kitchen and three bedrooms, plus a large loft/playroom with a Velux window. The rear courtyard garden is low-maintenance and suits outdoor seating or pot plants rather than large-scale landscaping. Council tax is very low, and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Buyers should note material local and property considerations. The wider area is very deprived with very high recorded crime rates; this affects buyer demand and should be checked against personal safety and insurance needs. The property’s granite/whinstone walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers wanting higher thermal performance may need to budget for insulation works. The plot and room proportions are small — best suited to a small family, first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a central location.
Overall this cottage offers straightforward, low-maintenance living close to local amenities and schools, with clear potential for modest energy upgrades or cosmetic changes. Priced to reflect its size and location, it will appeal to buyers prioritising central convenience and a tidy, ready-to-live-in home.
