Summary - 60 BAMPFYLDE ROAD TORQUAY TQ2 5AY
10 bed 8 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious 10-bed Victorian guesthouse near Torquay harbourside — strong potential with refurbishment.
10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms across three floors, including self-contained top-floor annexe
This substantial Victorian semi-detached property on Bampfylde Road offers a rare 10-bedroom, 8-bathroom layout across three floors, ideal for an independent guest house or a large rental block. High ceilings, bay windows and period detailing create strong character and guest appeal, while a self-contained top-floor annexe provides on-site owner accommodation or extra lettable space.
Practical strengths include off-street parking to the front, a large plot with garden space, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for hospitality and short-stay guests. The property is freehold, sits in a no-flood-risk area and is a short walk from Torquay town centre and harbourside attractions, an important demand driver for holiday lets and visitor accommodation.
Material considerations are significant and should be factored into purchase plans. The building dates from before 1900 with granite/whinstone walls that are assumed uninsulated; improvement works (insulation, heating efficiency) will likely be needed. The wider area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime levels and a constrained-renter profile, which can affect pricing, lettings and insurance costs.
This is best suited to buyers prepared to operate in the hospitality or rental sector and to invest in period-sensitive refurbishment and ongoing management. For the right investor or operator, the combination of size, location and flexible layout presents clear potential, but realistic budgets for upgrades and security measures are essential.
