Affordable two-bedroom town living near shops and seafront attractions.
- Two bedrooms arranged over ground and converted first/loft floor
- Modern fitted kitchen with integrated oven and laminate flooring
- Allocated off-street parking and small paved courtyard area
- Freehold tenure and very low council tax
- Small overall footprint; compact room sizes throughout
- Exterior render shows wear; likely needs minor maintenance
- Sandstone walls assumed uninsulated; consider insulation work
- Located in a higher-deprivation area; resale/rental implications
This compact two-bedroom maisonette sits in St Marychurch, within walking distance of the precinct and Babbacombe’s shops, cafes and theatre. The accommodation is arranged over ground and converted first/loft floor, with a modern kitchen, a handy courtyard/paved area and allocated off-street parking — useful practical benefits for everyday life in town.
The property is freehold, heated by a mains-gas boiler and fitted with double glazing. Interiors are generally tidy, and the modern kitchen with integrated oven provides a ready-to-use focal point. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working or streaming with minimal disruption.
Buyers should note the modest overall footprint and small room sizes; this is a lower-value urban unit suited to a single occupant, couple or buy-to-let investor. The exterior shows simple mid-20th-century render and may benefit from minor maintenance and cosmetic updates to maximise appeal and rental value.
There are clear positives for a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry to Torquay or an investor targeting rental income — low council tax, freehold tenure and proximity to local amenities. However, prospective purchasers should factor in limited external space, possible wall insulation improvements and the broader area’s higher deprivation when assessing long-term resale or rental potential.
