Summary - Yellow Tubs, Torbay Road, TORQUAY TQ2 6RG
1 bed 1 bath Land
Rare headland plot with consent for a four-storey contemporary home.
Level waterfront building plot with direct south/west bay views
An exceptionally rare level waterfront plot on Torbay Road with existing planning permission for a contemporary four-storey home. Set on an elevated headland, the site offers direct south/west views across Tor Bay toward the marina and beaches, and sits among similar high-value properties. The plot is freehold, very large and includes a garden area; broadband is fast and local crime levels are very low.
This is a strong opportunity for a buyer who wants a turnkey planning position rather than starting from scratch. The approved “state of the art” design maximises sea views and will suit an executive family home or a premium holiday residence. The immediate area is affluent and close to town amenities, harbourside leisure, and highly ranked schools, increasing long-term appeal and resale prospects.
Buyers should note material factors plainly: the site has a medium flood risk and building on a coastal headland will require appropriate coastal protection and maintenance measures. Construction of a four-storey dwelling will incur significant build and running costs; purchasers should verify current planning conditions, service connections and any site-specific constraints before exchange.
Overall, Yellow Tubs offers rare waterfront potential with consented contemporary design — ideal for purchasers seeking a high-spec coastal home or a strategically placed investment, provided they allow for coastal build considerations and flood mitigation works.
