OWNER INSIGHT

"I've lived in this property for nearly 20 years, and it's been a wonderful place to call home. The neighbours are so friendly, and I’ve been lucky enough to make close friends that I will miss dearly, it has created a real sense of community for me. We're just a short walk from the Torquay seafront and Torre Abbey Sands, with public transport right around the corner - making it easy to get anywhere without needing a car. The area is really on the up, with lots of new developments and renovations happening, which has brought a fresh energy to the neighbourhood. It's been a pleasure watching it grow, and I’m sure the next owner will love it just as much as I have."
