Set within an elegant Victorian villa on the Lincombes hillside, this generous first-floor apartment delivers striking southerly sea views across Tor Bay from its impressive bay-windowed drawing room. Period details — ornate cornice, ceiling roses and a minster fireplace — combine with a spacious layout, making the home well suited to families or professionals who value character and coastal outlooks.
The apartment offers three double bedrooms (one en-suite), a separate shower room, kitchen with utility and a large reception hall. Practical benefits include two allocated tandem parking spaces, well-tended communal gardens and a paved terrace that directly overlooks the bay. Broadband and mobile coverage are strong and the property sits within reach of Wellswood shops, the harbour and good local schools.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold home (residents share the freehold) with 960 years remaining and an annual service charge of £2,556. The EPC is D (56) and the building’s original granite walls are assumed uninsulated, so heating costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Access is via a stepped approach, which should be noted if mobility is a concern.
Overall this apartment will appeal to buyers seeking a large, characterful seaside home with excellent views and convenient parking. It requires routine upkeep typical of older properties and carries running costs to reflect its conservation-area setting and shared ownership arrangements.
