Brunel Park, Torquay

Shalom is a BESPOKE DETACHED HOUSE set toward the head of a cul-de-sac and nestled in the peaceful lea of Brunel Woodland. Set elevated from the road in attractive gardens, the property faces a southerly aspect commanding views over the surrounding area towards the Churches of St Marychurch and Easterfield. Constructed by our clients for their own occupation, the property features spacious accommodation, designed with easy adaption for changing needs in mind, and particular features being the beautiful garden and ample driveway parking.

A personal gate from the rear garden leads directly into the neighbouring woodland, with beautiful scenic walks ideal for dog owners. The South Devon coast path can also be joined nearby, leading to the local Watcombe and Maidencombe Beaches. Easy access is gained onto the A379 coast road which runs northerly to Shaldon and Teignmouth, or southerly to St Marychurch and Torquay's harbourside beyond.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"We originally bought the house next door with our son and family and built this house on the site of an old annex and garage. We built the property to a high specification, ensuring it had an EPC insulation rating of B and could be adapted for later life. Situated in a very quiet cul de sac with far reaching views to the front and Brunel Woods behind with gate allowing easy access for walking the dog. We are also in walking distance to Watcombe Beach and the coastal path. The garden is very private and although facing north gets the sun most of the day. We had planned to stay here for a long time. However our circumstances have unfortunately changed, with our son moving to Australia and my husband being diagnosed with lung cancer, we need to move nearer our daughters in Bristol. This has been a very difficult decision to make as we love this house and the area and are very fortunate to have very friendly neighbours. We hope the new owners will be as happy here as we have been."
