Externally the property sits on a decent plot with off-street parking and a single-storey garage.

Local facilities, regular buses and a cluster of well-rated schools are all within walking distance, making daily life straightforward for families.
Buyers should note some practical limitations. Ceiling heights are lower than modern builds, which can affect room feeling and lighting. The area is classified as deprived and crime is average—useful to consider for long‑term investment or resale. The exact age of the glazing is unknown and there may be scope to modernise certain finishes to suit contemporary tastes.
Overall this is a roomy, well-presented bungalow in a sought-after coastal pocket of Torquay. It combines sea-facing appeal, energy-saving solar panels and a flexible internal layout—ideal for those seeking comfortable single-storey living with good local schools and transport links.
