Fore Street, Barton, TQ2

Standing above the road, this END OF TERRACE HOUSE occupies a generous plot with large level rear garden in one of Torquay's favoured districts.

Directly outside is unrestricted on-road parking.

The house is conveniently positioned on the periphery of Torquay making easy access both in and out of the town.

Picturesque walks can be found nearby at Brunel Woodland, or by crossing the Teignmouth Road at the end of Moor Lane toward Watcombe Beach and the South West Coast Paths leading toward Shaldon to the north, or St Marychurch and Torquay sea front to the south.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"This house has been a wonderful home for us, full of happy memories and everything we've needed. As our daughter is getting closer to starting secondary school and with the hope of finding a bit more space for working from home, we feel it’s the right time to take the next step. We’ve loved living here. The neighbourhood is peaceful and friendly, and it's such a bonus being able to walk to the local shops and schools. The garden has been one of our favourite features, it’s larger and more level than most nearby, making it great for kids to play or for relaxing outdoors. There’s still so much potential here, and while we had a few plans in mind if we were staying, it’s now a lovely opportunity for the next owners to make it their own."
