Set within a quiet Wellswood development, this two-bedroom end-terrace offers low-maintenance, practical living for someone looking to downsize or retire locally. The property benefits from off-street parking with a covered carport and a compact, private courtyard garden designed for easy upkeep rather than extensive gardening.
Inside, rooms are modest and efficiently laid out across about 669 sq ft. A modern fitted kitchen and a straightforward tiled bathroom mean the home is largely move-in ready, while larger windows and a partially covered patio provide pleasant natural light and a sense of connection to the green surroundings. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double but installed prior to 2002.
The house sits in an affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with good local amenities, nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good, and no flood risk. Practical points to note are the small plot size and slower broadband speeds — important if you work from home or need high-capacity internet. The property was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and shows mid-century features, so buyers seeking modernisation or particular period restoration should factor in potential updates.
Overall, this compact terraced home will suit a purchaser seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance base in Torquay with parking and easy access to local shops and green space. It offers sensible living for downsizers or anyone prioritising location and convenience over extensive outdoor space or large internal rooms.
