SELLERS INSIGHT

“Having holidayed in Torbay in the 1960’s, when our parents retired, they decided to follow their heart and move to the Bay and start their new life, a decision that they never regretted! Having thoroughly searched the area they found ‘The Willows’, an area that appealed to them as it provided brand new homes in a convenient location and close to a good selection of shops.” “Upon visiting the show home at the development and reviewing the plans they decided to purchase this detached house, set at the head of a quiet close and enjoying a lovely private garden. It was such a wonderful choice and they quickly settled into their ‘forever home’, enjoying 27 very happy years living on the English Riviera.”
