OWNER INSIGHT

"I first lived in Warbro Road when I was born in 1950. I left Torquay in 1969 when I married and moved away. I always had a longing to move back to where I grew up and bought this house 10 years ago. I have been very happy here but I feel I have to downsize and move to accommodation more suited to my advancing years. This would be a lovely family home for the younger generation."
