Summary - 70 SHIRBURN ROAD TORQUAY TQ1 4HR
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Generous family layout with garden and lower‑ground utility, near schools and shops.
Freehold four-bedroom Victorian terraced house, approx. 1,153 sqft
Set over four levels, this Victorian terraced house offers flexible family accommodation and strong rental potential in central Torquay. The well-proportioned lounge with a bay window and a generous kitchen/diner create bright, sociable ground-floor living, while three first-floor bedrooms plus a sizable top-floor bedroom (loft conversion) give room for a growing household or sharers.
The lower-ground floor adds a large utility, shower room and a useful store/home-office, opening onto a south‑west facing garden with paved seating and lawn — an uncommon outdoor space for this street. Practical benefits include double glazing, gas central heating and an approximate 1,153 sqft of internal space, all offered freehold with a Guide Price of £250,000–£260,000.
Buyers should note some constraints: the area scores as deprived locally and the immediate neighbourhood is classed as constrained renters, which may affect long-term capital growth and lettability expectations. The property’s solid brick walls were built pre-1900 and are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so improving thermal efficiency may be needed. There are restrictive covenants and a private right of way to be observed.
Overall this is a spacious, well-presented period home with practical added space and clear scope for energy and cosmetic improvements — suitable for families wanting central convenience or investors seeking a multi-bedroom rental in Torquay.
