Lincombes, Torquay

STRIKING SEA VIEWS OF TOR BAY and over the surrounding wooded area are encompassed from this FINE COASTAL APARTMENT, enjoyed from the principal room, kitchen, and full width deep balcony which face a southerly aspect. One of Torquay's sought after purpose built developments, Lyncombe Crescent sits proudly at the top of the prestigious Lincombes Hillside amidst attractive communal gardens with swimming pool, and this particular apartment occupying a third floor position.

The Lincombes is one of Torquay's most desirable residential districts, occupying a prominent location above Torquay's bustling harbour, yacht marina and sea front beyond. Wellswood amenities can be found in the opposite direction, retaining a village ambiance with post office, pub, delicatessen, renowned primary school and well supported St Matthias Church. Picturesque walks through the scenic Ilsham Valley, Meadfoot Beach and Daddyhole Plain link Wellswood to the harbour.

SELLER'S INSIGHT

"My parents moved to Lyncombe Crescent for a change in lifestyle twenty years ago, and it has been a cherished home ever since. The view is ever changing and never ceases to amaze us, whether relaxing on the large balcony in the sunshine with the sun glistening over the sea, or watching stormy weather roll in across the bay. Lyncombe Crescent gave both my mum and I peace of mind when my father passed away, knowing she had lovely neighbours around her, and part of a secure development."
