Description

Offered to the market chain free, this deceptively spacious three-bedroom end-of-terrace home presents an excellent opportunity within the sought-after district of St Marychurch. Arranged over two floors in a traditional three-bedroom layout, the property combines comfortable accommodation with impressive outdoor living spaces.

A particular highlight of the home is the generously sized rear garden. This features multiple seating areas including a recently installed decked upper terrace, perfectly positioned to enjoy the sunlight throughout the day. To the front, a neatly presented tiered garden provides a low-maintenance setting adjacent to the driveway parking and garage.

The front of the property benefits from recently installed double-glazed windows and a new front door, fitted just over a year ago.

The property is ideally situated just a short walk from the pedestrianised village precinct of St Marychurch, offering a variety of shops, cafés, and eateries. The scenic Babbacombe Downs, with its cliffside views and access to shingle beaches, lies nearby, along with a range of local schools including The Priory, St Margaret's, and St Cuthbert's Mayne. Leisure facilities abound, with Babbacombe Corinthian Sailing Club and Torquay Golf Club both within easy reach.

The Approach

The property is approached via a well-maintained, tiered front garden, arranged across several levels to offer both visual interest and functional design. Finished with white-painted masonry and decorative gravel, the garden provides a low-maintenance yet attractive setting, further enhanced by tasteful planters and inset lighting that add a welcoming charm. A central flight of steps leads through the garden to the main entrance, positioned adjacent to a private driveway that offers off-road parking and direct access to the garage, complete with an up-and-over door, power and lighting. Entry into the home is through a modern composite front door with an obscured glazed side panel, opening into a bright hallway. The hallway features a staircase to the first floor and includes a built-in under-stair storage cupboard, ideal for coats, shoes, or general storage needs.

Living room

Positioned at the front of the property, the living room offers generous proportions, providing ample space for a variety of seating arrangements. A large double-glazed window allows natural light to fill the space, complemented by a radiator situated beneath to ensure year-round comfort. There is a neutral décor and carpet throughout the room, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Kitchen

The kitchen is both modern and well-presented, offering a practical and attractive space for day-to-day living. It is fitted with a comprehensive range of white wall and base units, complemented by a roll-edge worktop and tiled splashbacks for easy maintenance and a clean finish. A one-and-a-half bowl composite sink with drainer is positioned beneath a rear-facing double-glazed window, providing a pleasant outlook onto the garden. The kitchen includes space for an electric cooker with an extractor hood above. It also includes under-counter provisions and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, and additional space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. The gas boiler is discreetly housed within matching cabinetry. A double-glazed rear door offers direct access to the garden. The kitchen opens into a spacious family dining area, offering ample room for a dining table. A double-glazed window overlooks the rear garden, with a radiator beneath.

Bedrooms & Bathroom

The first floor offers a practical and well-proportioned layout, comprising three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC. The principal bedroom is a spacious double, positioned at the front of the property and benefiting from a double-glazed window providing natural light. The second bedroom, a small double, is situated at the rear. The third bedroom, also a small double, offers versatility as a guest room, nursery or home office. The family bathroom features fully tiled walls and a panelled bath with a shower over. It also features a vanity unit with integrated wash basin and storage, and a wall-mounted heated towel rail beneath an obscured rear-facing double-glazed window. Completing the upper level is a separate WC, also with tiled walls and an obscured double-glazed window for ventilation and privacy.

A Garden to Enjoy

The first level features a paved pathway leading directly from the kitchen, wrapping around to a gated access at the front. Alongside this is a raised patio seating area, a private and sheltered spot for al fresco dining or a morning coffee. On the second tier, you'll find an artificial lawn and cleverly concealed storage under the deck. The upper level is the highlight of the garden, a spacious and elevated decked terrace that enjoys an abundance of sunlight throughout the day. Surrounded by mature trees at the rear, this space has been beautifully designed to accommodate both lounging and entertaining. Whether used for weekend gatherings or serene sunset unwinding, this elevated area offers a rare blend of openness and privacy. In all, the garden offers a versatile and well-executed extension of the home’s living space, perfectly suited to a variety of lifestyles.
