Ellacombe, Torquay

First time on the market for over 40 years is this THREE BEDROOM TERRACED HOUSE and over the last couple of years our clients have modernised the kitchen, installed a new gas boiler and more recently a new roof. The property offers two reception rooms and ample storage whilst externally there is a large rear garden with patio area and vegetable patch.

The property is conveniently placed at the top of Ellacombe, with easy access to the scenic Babbacombe Downs and a host of amenities at St Marychurch with its ‘village’ precinct, Medical Practices and Churches. A selection of local schools are also within comfortable walking distance with Torquay town centre easily accessible with the bustling harbourside beyond.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"Having lived in Belmont Road for the past forty one years i have always found it to be a pleasant, cheerful place to be. I have been fortunate to have had wonderful neighbours throughout almost all those years and I am sad to be leaving them. However since the deaths of my husband and son I realise the time has come to downsize and live nearer to family."
