Summary - 3 FERNLEA, MILL LANE, TORQUAY TQ2 5AN
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Low-maintenance flat ideal for seaside convenience and long-lease security.
Close to seafront promenade and harbourside
A neat one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a small purpose-built block, well placed for the seafront promenade, harbourside and local shops. The open-plan living area with an integrated kitchen, fitted bedroom wardrobes and recent decoration make this ready to occupy with minimal immediate work.
Practical details suit a low-maintenance lifestyle: allocated resident and visitor parking, a small communal garden and double glazing installed post-2002. The lease is long (969 years remaining) and running costs include a modest ground rent of £25 and an average service charge of £1,320 per year.
Important considerations are straightforward and factual. The flat is reached by exterior stairs to the first floor (no lift), which may limit accessibility. The wider area records very high crime and significant deprivation indices — buyers should weigh location factors alongside proximity to amenities. Council tax is very low, but the service charge is a recurring cost to budget for.
This property will suit someone seeking a compact, seaside-positioned home with low upkeep or an investor looking for a straightforward buy-to-let close to Torquay’s waterfront. It offers immediate convenience and long lease security, balanced against local area challenges and stair access.
