This two-bedroom Victorian maisonette offers roomy living in the heart of Torquay, just a short walk from town centre amenities, schools and bus routes. A large lounge/diner and bright double bedrooms give the feeling of generous space for a first home, while a useful loft room provides extra storage or occasional sleep/work space.
Practical comforts include double glazing, gas central heating and allocated off-street parking to the rear — useful in a busy town location. The property benefits from a very long lease (955 years), low council tax (Band B) and a nominal ground rent, making it straightforward for first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers.
Buyers should note some obvious maintenance and fabric issues. The exterior shows signs of wear and rainwater pipe deterioration and will need attention. Walls are original solid brick with no known cavity insulation, so heating costs and retrofit work should be considered. The property sits in an area of higher deprivation — amenities are nearby but the neighbourhood is mixed.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance urban home with scope to personalise and improve. It will suit buyers seeking central location, spacious rooms and long-lease security, while those wanting fully modernised, energy-efficient fabric may wish to budget for upgrades.
