Large garden, garage and flexible living close to schools and hospital.
Four double bedrooms over three floors, flexible family layout
Spacious and practical, this four-bedroom detached family home sits over three floors on a large plot in Torquay’s TQ2. The house offers generous living space including an open-plan kitchen/lounge, separate dining room, conservatory and a ground-floor study/occasional bedroom — useful for home working or family flexibility. A tandem garage and off-street parking add valuable vehicle and storage capacity.
The mature, enclosed garden is a standout feature: landscaped with a pond, man-made stream and a bridged lawn and patio area that provide a peaceful outdoor retreat and strong scope for family use and entertaining. Internally the property benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating, and many rooms receive good natural light.
There are straightforward modernisation opportunities: the house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so improving insulation would reduce running costs and increase comfort. Some updating to kitchen, bathrooms and cosmetic finishes may be required to match contemporary tastes.
Location is practical for family life — close to several primary and two grammar secondary schools, Torbay Hospital and transport links. Buyers should note local crime statistics are above average; this, together with the property's age-related maintenance needs, has been reflected in the price and should be factored into any decision.
