Description

Commanding a fine position at the top of the wooded slopes of the Warberries, one of Torquay's renowned seven hills is the prestigious development of Sunnyhill, a select complex of twelve quality homes consisting of six modern mews houses and a Victorian Villa converted into six sizeable apartments. This TOWN HOUSE has been owned by two generations of our clients family for over 20 years and provides an easily managed home offering deceptively spacious accommodation, with the principal living space enjoying a bright southerly aspect and benefitting from some sea peeps. A sunny paved patio to the front, the use of extensive landscaped communal gardens and an allocated parking space compliment this beautiful property, which is a low maintenance home or ideal second home.

The development sits within secure electronic gated parking facilities and private grounds with landscaped gardens of approximately one acre where southerly views to the sea at Tor Bay can be enjoyed. Torquay's harbourside and town centre lie at the base of the hill whilst the popular amenities at nearby Wellswood village are easily accessible.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"This beautiful home has been in our family since it was built in 2002. It has provided us with all that we could wish for. It is located in the most desirable and picturesque area of Torquay, within walking distance of the newly renovated marina in Torquay with all the wonderful amenities including quality cafes and restaurants. In addition stunning walking distance of Babbacombe and Wellswood where you can find everything that is required. It is set on the Warberries hillside where we have a sunny and private terrace but in addition the use of the beautifully maintained quiet communal garden ideal if you seek some peace and quiet amongst nature and trees in all seasons. This is not only an ideal warm and practical family home but the perfect holiday let which I recently discovered as it provided an income over the recent summer, in fact it was fully occupied throughout the six week school holidays. I hope you love it as much as we have- we have some very special memories."
