Babbacombe, Torquay

Set elevated from the road behind driveway parking, this PERIOD SEMI-DETACHED HOUSE stands in the heart of Babbacombe being one of Torquay's most sought after districts, commanding views over neighbouring rooftops toward nearby Walls Hill and Lyme Bay from the upper level. The property provides versatile extended FOUR BEDROOM family accommodation that would now benefit from enhancement and improvement but has been priced to reflect the work required, enabling prospective purchasers the opportunity to inject their own taste and style into their new home.

Comprehensive amenities and leisure activities are afforded close at hand, with the nearby picturesque Babbacombe Downs boasting an array of cafe's, restaurants, and bars, Babbacombe Theatre, and the renowned Cliff Railway linking Oddicombe Beach below. The popular Cary Parks locally provide dog exercise spaces, designated children's play area, tennis and bowls clubs, whilst a wide selection of shops, Brunel Medical Centre, and Churches are all within comfortable walking distance.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"In 1997 I bought the property as a family home for myself and my three children. The house provided plenty of space for all of us and visitors alike. The location of the property being close to Babbacome Downs and Walls Hill provided great outdoor space for family time and endless dog walks ! Sadly I have now reached the age that the property is just too big for me to maintain on my own but I am sure with some TLC it can provide a great family home for someone and I hope they are as happy in the property as I have been for the last 27 years."
