Garlic Rea, Brixham

Panoramic harbour and sea views meet unrivalled parking and outdoor space in this unique three-bedroom Brixham home. Full of character and potential, it’s a rare coastal gem with a substantial garage, gated parking and private terraces. NO ONWARD CHAIN

Tucked away on the seaward side of Garlic Rea, this charming three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Brixham offers an exceptional combination of space, character and location. Occupying a substantial corner plot, the property enjoys sweeping views over the harbour, town and out to sea, while also providing that all-important advantage of generous parking provisions with a large detached garage and expansive gated parking area.

The house welcomes you through an entrance porch into a warm and characterful lounge, where a feature stone wall and exposed ceiling beams create the feel of a traditional cottage. This flows openly into a bright dual-aspect dining room, offering a versatile family space, and on again into a well-appointed kitchen with ample cupboard and worktop space. Completing the ground floor is a sizeable family bathroom, further storage and rear access to the outside.

Upstairs, the first floor offers two bedrooms and a second family bathroom. The larger front bedroom enjoys a commanding outlook across the inner harbour and Torbay from its box-bay window, complemented by built-in storage. To the rear, a smaller yet versatile bedroom offers direct access to a raised sun terrace above the kitchen – a lovely private spot to sit out and take in the surroundings. The bathroom on this level features a corner bath with a matching white suite.

The second floor is home to the impressive master bedroom, a spacious retreat with a triple aspect and sliding doors that open onto a private balcony. From here, the uninterrupted panorama stretches across Brixham, over the inner harbour and out across Torbay, a truly breathtaking outlook that takes in spectacular sunsets. An adjacent WC gives this level the feeling of a self-contained master suite.

Outside, the property offers multiple areas of outside space including a rear courtyard, a generous side garden and the raised roof terrace. The gardens, whilst in need of some attention, provide private and tranquil areas that also enjoy sea and harbour views. The standout feature, however, is the unusually large private parking area accessed via metal gates from Great Rea Road. Fully laid with block paving, it offers space for several vehicles, a boat or motorhome, and even holds potential as a separate building plot or rentable parking for local residents. A substantial double garage with courtesy access completes the offering.

While well maintained over the years, the property would benefit from a programme of updating, giving the next owner the opportunity to put their own stamp on what is already a remarkable home. With UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and no onward chain, this property represents a rare chance to acquire a home with exceptional views, versatile accommodation and unrivalled parking in a superbly convenient location.
