Description

Nestled away in a quiet backwater just moments from Torquay’s bustling harbour, this is a rare opportunity to purchase TWO FREEHOLD PERIOD COTTAGES, offered together and priced to reflect MODERNISATION NOW REQUIRED. The properties present a blank canvas for purchasers seeking to create a character home, investment opportunity, or income producing property, all within an easy saunter of the harbour, marina and town centre.

We understand from our client that the building has enjoyed an interesting and varied history, having originally served as a coach house to the renowned Queen’s Hotel, before later being used as a rubber works prior to its conversion to residential accommodation.

Park Lane is discreetly tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet lies just a short walk from the vibrant waterside bars and restaurants, the Princess Theatre, and a wide array of leisure activities. From the harbour, Torquay’s seafront promenade stretches past the marina and Princess Pier towards the flagship Torre Abbey Sands Beach, historic Torre Abbey and its meadow, and onward to Torquay Railway Station.
