Well-situated family home near top grammar schools and local amenities.
Three bedrooms with separate dining room and ground-floor cloakroom
This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Shiphay offers practical family living with clear local advantages. Set on a decent plot, the home includes a private driveway, attached garage and an enclosed split-level rear garden with a sunny raised deck — a useful outdoor room for children and summer entertaining. The layout provides a living room, separate dining room, large kitchen, ground-floor cloakroom and a single family bathroom upstairs.
Location is a major draw: the property sits close to Torquay Boys' and Girls' Grammar Schools, Torbay Hospital and local shops, with good bus links and Torre station within walking distance. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working-from-home arrangements.
Buyers should note the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and, although presented ready to move into, some elements have unknown ages — specifically the glazing and other services — which may require inspection or future updating. There is one bathroom for three bedrooms, which can be a consideration for larger families. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average compared with the wider district, which prospective purchasers may want to investigate further.
Overall this is a solid family home in a sought-after suburb, offering immediate comfort with potential to modernise selectively. The freehold tenure, decent plot and proximity to highly regarded secondary schools are strong long-term value drivers for families or buyers seeking a well-located property to personalise.
