Light-filled three-bed apartment with garage, long lease and short walk to the harbour.
Chain-free three-bedroom first-floor apartment
Light and well-located, this chain-free three-bedroom first-floor apartment sits in Wellswood Court, a short walk from Torquay harbourside and local shops. Large windows fill the living room with natural light, creating an airy feel across the main living space despite the apartment’s relatively compact overall size.
The property includes a private garage, which is an uncommon and practical bonus for central locations. The long lease (971 years) and affordable council tax band C reduce long-term ownership worries. The apartment will suit a first-time buyer or small family seeking convenient access to transport, local amenities and good nearby schools.
Buyers should note practical realities: there is a single bathroom, heating is via electric storage heaters, and the building has a service charge of approximately £1,296 per year. The lease restricts permanent pets. The area’s wider statistics show mixed socio-economic indicators; this is reflected in a higher-than-average local deprivation measure.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-positioned home with scope for modest updating. It offers secure parking and a long lease at a competitive price, but prospective purchasers should budget for ongoing service charges, electric heating costs and the single-bathroom layout.
