Description

Commanding dramatic SEA VIEWS and an EXCEPTIONAL TERRACE facing south westerly over Torre Abbey Sands, this FINE MARINE APARTMENT forms part of a select development occupying one of Torquay's outstanding waterfront locations. The property fuses period elegance with contemporary living flowing onto the terracing from both the principal room and primary bedroom. The apartment also benefits from an allocated space within the secure garaging.

Marine Palms is enviably tucked back from the hustle and bustle yet just a short saunter from the vibrant waterside cafe bars, restaurants, Marina, Princess Theatre and array of leisure activities. Torquay's Train Station is positioned at the opposite side of Torre Abbey Sands perfect for those who commute, whilst the English Riviera Centre and TLH Resort are both equally accessible providing exceptional leisure, sports and dining facilities.

OWNER'S INSIGHT

"As soon as I walked through the door and saw the beautiful terrace and spectacular views I was sold! I bought the apartment when new build for my home, although having moved away from the area it has been a rental investment due to my reluctance to let it go. Marine Palms gave me a lifestyle, being able to relax or entertain on the terrace enjoying the views, or a short walk to the sea front, Torre Abbey Sands, Princess Theatre, restaurants and bars. For anyone owning a boat, you are only a matter of minutes to the harbour and marina."
