St Marychurch, Torquay

This MODERN TOWN HOUSE forms part of a small, select development in the very heart of St Marychurch, just a stone's throw of the pedestrianised shopping precinct. Behind the discrete façade the property provides a comfortable sitting room, a recently re-fitted kitchen, a bedroom/dining room & shower room to the ground floor, with TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS (one with dressing room) and a further re-fitted shower room/WC to the first floor. To the rear of the house there is a private paved roof terrace, as well as a compact, enclosed, low maintenance courtyard garden. Directly opposite the property is private parking for up to two vehicles.

This lovely property offers a quiet setting combined with a most convenient location standing just a short, level saunter to the comprehensive amenities of St Marychurch with wide choice of shops and eateries, whilst the scenic Babbacombe Downs with shingle beaches below is equally accessible. Numerous leisure and sports clubs are close at hand, with Babbacombe Corinthian Sailing Club a matter of steps from the door, and Torquay Golf Club virtually a tee shot away.

SELLERS INSIGHT

"The freehold property has recently been renovated, with new kitchen and bathroom, and decorated throughout. It has gas central heating, with fairly new boiler. We particularly like the convenience of the property, as it is on the flat, very close to St. Marychurch precinct, local schools, and a selection of regular bus services. It also has the valuable benefit of two parking spaces. The area is quiet, and residential."
