Large private garden and close to Wellswood shops and Meadfoot Beach.
Detached Arts-and-Crafts house in quiet Ilsham Valley cul-de-sac
Appletreewick is a handsome Arts-and-Crafts detached home set in the heart of Ilsham Valley, quietly positioned in a cul-de-sac and surrounded by mature, level gardens. The property offers a large, secluded lawn, a useful garden room ideal for a home office or occasional guest use, and generous off-street parking with a single garage. Its location sits comfortably between Wellswood village amenities and Meadfoot Beach, with well-regarded primary and grammar schools close by — a strong draw for families.
The house retains period character throughout: exposed floorboards, panelled doors, ornate fireplaces and generous room proportions. On the ground floor there’s a sun room, separate sitting and dining rooms and a fitted kitchen with a central granite island. Upstairs provides four good bedrooms and a family bathroom; there is scope to create an en-suite over the garage/garden room subject to planning permissions.
Practical considerations are presented openly. The EPC is rated D (64) and the property dates from the early 20th century, so potential buyers should expect period maintenance and the possibility of upgrading insulation and services. The home currently has a single family bathroom and council tax is band F, which reflects local running costs. Walls are cavity-built with no recorded insulation (assumed), so buyers mindful of energy efficiency may want to factor in further works.
For families seeking space, privacy and a coastal lifestyle, this home delivers a rare, level plot in a very desirable part of Torquay. It will suit buyers who value character and generous outdoor space and who are happy to invest selectively to modernise heating, insulation or bathroom arrangements.
