Compact, modern two-bed with parking and communal gardens — ideal for downsizers.
Ground-floor, two bedrooms in a coastal Chelston location
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment sits just a short walk from Torquay seafront and Cockington Village, offering a low-maintenance base for someone looking to downsize or retire near coast and countryside. The open-plan living space and modern kitchen feel bright and practical, with double glazing and mains gas central heating providing everyday comfort.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, communal gardens, and a share of freehold with 115 years remaining on the lease. The building has been updated since construction (1950–66), and the apartment is presented in contemporary condition throughout — ready to move into without major works.
Buyers should note the apartment is compact at around 337 sq ft, so it will suit those seeking a small, manageable home rather than generous living space. Annual service charge is £1,204.83 and there are lease restrictions (including a ban on pets and limits on holiday rentals) that may affect some buyers.
The immediate area is classed as ageing urban communities with above-average local crime and relative deprivation; while the location gives excellent access to local shops, transport and nearby schools, prospective purchasers should weigh neighbourhood factors alongside the apartment’s convenience and low-maintenance appeal.
