Modern low-maintenance living close to Torquay’s coast and amenities.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with private balcony and lift access
This third-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Babbacombe Heights offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with modern finishes and seaside proximity. Built in 2023 and covered by a 10-year ICW warranty, the property benefits from underfloor heating, integrated kitchen appliances, lift access and an allocated parking space with electric car charging — practical features for everyday life or a second home.
The open-plan living and dining area opens onto a private balcony, providing a pleasant spot to relax and enjoy Downs views. Both bedrooms are doubles with contemporary decor and double glazing; the layout is straightforward and easy to furnish. The long 999-year lease and share of freehold provide long-term security, and a B EPC plus mains gas heating support reasonable running costs.
Buyers should note the annual service charge of approximately £2,630 and that the development sits within a communal retirement classification and an ageing urban community — factors to consider for those seeking a lively, youthful neighbourhood. The area has average crime and mobile reception, and the location sits within a deprived wider area classification, which may affect future resale dynamics.
Overall, this well-appointed, modern apartment suits downsizers, second-home buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance coastal bolthole with long lease security and contemporary comforts.
