Set on the second floor of the Babbacombe Heights development, this two-bedroom apartment offers ready-to-move-in, modern accommodation a short walk from Babbacombe Downs and the seafront. The open-plan living space, balcony and lift access suit buyers seeking low-maintenance coastal living or a holiday-let/investment opportunity. Built in 2023 and sold with a 10-year NHBC/ICW-style warranty, the property benefits from contemporary fixtures, underfloor heating and a long lease with share of freehold.
Practical conveniences include allocated off-street parking, fast broadband availability and gas-fired boiler heating. The flat’s compact 732 sq ft layout has one bathroom and four principal rooms, designed for easy short-term rental or comfortable two-bed living. Proximity to cafes, restaurants and local amenities makes the location attractive to holidaymakers and tenants.
There are a few material points to note: the development sits within a communal retirement classification and an area flagged as relatively deprived, which may influence long-term community profile and some buyer requirements. Crime levels are average and council tax details are not provided. The apartment is newly renovated and requires no immediate works, but buyers wanting larger family accommodation or multiple bathrooms should be aware of the single-bathroom layout.
Overall, this modern seaside apartment suits investors seeking a ready-to-let holiday property or buyers looking for a low-maintenance second home in Torquay. The long lease, share of freehold and warranty reduce medium-term ownership risk, while proximity to the promenade and local amenities supports rental demand and lifestyle appeal.
