This extended mid-terrace house on Burleigh Road is a practical family home close to excellent local schools, including Torquay Boys’ and Girls’ Grammar, and within walking distance of Torbay Hospital. The property offers four good-sized bedrooms plus a loft room, gas central heating, and double glazing. Front and rear gardens provide outdoor space and a raised deck at the rear creates a pleasant sunny sitting area.
The house is being sold by Modern Auction: there is an undisclosed reserve price and buyers will pay a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) plus administration costs. The auction route allows completion within 56 days but requires careful pre-bid due diligence and budget for auction fees and associated costs.
Internally the layout is straightforward and family-friendly, but the home shows its 1970s origins and would benefit from cosmetic updating to kitchen, bathroom and finishes to unlock greater value. The property is compact for a four-bed terrace and has a single bathroom; on-street parking only. Construction details indicate timber-frame elements with partial insulation, so buyers should factor potential improvement works (insulation, modernisation) into plans and surveys.
Overall this is a convenient, well-located terrace with clear scope for improvement and rental or family use. It will particularly suit buyers who can move quickly through the auction process, budget for the reservation fee, and want proximity to good schools and local amenities.
