Wellswood, Torquay

Set in the heart of leafy Wellswood, Asheldon House is an established purpose-built development standing just a short stroll from the ‘village’ shops. The APARTMENT occupies a third floor position and enjoys open southerly views over Wellswood toward the treelined Lincombes and Warberries hillsides from the balcony and principal rooms.  Nestled within landscaped communal gardens the apartment provides well-proportioned TWO BEDROOM accommodation, which would benefit from a degree of modernisation, but enables new owners the opportunity of injecting their own taste & style into their new home.  To the front of the development there is a residents car park.

Asheldon House stands on a tree lined road just a stone's throw from the parade of shops in nearby Ilsham Road with delicatessen, restaurants and pub whilst the picturesque Meadfoot Beach can be found within a reasonable walk through the beautiful Ilsham Valley.
