Summary - ENFIELD COTTAGES 1A ST JAMES PLACE TORQUAY TQ1 3LT
1 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
One-bed retirement home with lifetime-lease saving potential for over‑60s.
One-bedroom end-of-terrace in Victorian stucco terrace
A compact one-bedroom end-of-terrace in Babbacombe offered with Homewise Home for Life lifetime-lease pricing for over-60s. Set in a Victorian stucco terrace close to local shops, bus links and the seafront, the flat is presented as an average-sized retirement home with straightforward accommodation over one floor.
The living room and general décor date to the 1980s and will suit a buyer happy with original fittings or a modest refurbishment. At about 449 sq ft the layout is economical — ideal for a single occupier — but offers limited storage and space for full modernisation. Mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are fast, a practical plus for staying connected.
The property is marketed with a full market price of £170,000 and an indicative Home for Life lifetime-lease guide price of £114,000 (typical saving shown 33%). Only purchasers aged 60+ are eligible for the Home for Life price; actual purchase cost varies with age, chosen share and circumstances. Tenure details are not confirmed and should be checked by your solicitor.
Location notes: the immediate area is classified as deprived with average local crime and an ageing urban population profile. Nearby primary and secondary schools rate well overall, and local amenities including shops, pharmacy, pubs and transport are within easy reach. No flood risk is recorded.
