Description

Three-Bedroom Family Home with Garage, Driveway, and Conservatory on the Fringes of Shiphay

Ideally located on the quiet outskirts of the highly sought-after Shiphay area, this three-bedroom terraced home offers the perfect balance of family-friendly space and excellent connectivity. With quick access both into Torquay and out towards the rest of Torbay, it’s a brilliant choice for growing families and commuters alike.

The property makes an immediate impression with its large, lawned front garden, and is set back from the road and provides a lovely sense of privacy. The property also boasts the "gold dust" combination of its own driveway and a single garage, making parking headaches a thing of the past. Upon entry, a practical porch offers a handy storage cupboard for coats and shoes, keeping the main living areas tidy.

The heart of the home is the expansive living and dining room. This bright and airy space is centered around a classic bay window that overlooks the front garden, flooding the room with natural light. There is more than enough room for a large suite of furniture plus a family-sized dining table, and a clever under-stairs cupboard provides deep storage for the vacuum and household essentials.

To the rear, a secondary hallway leads to a must-have for any family home: a convenient downstairs cloakroom with WC and washbasin. The adjacent kitchen is thoughtfully laid out with ample cupboard and worktop space, room for a cooker, and a window that looks through into the conservatory. The conservatory itself is a fantastic addition, offering a versatile "bonus" room that lends itself perfectly to being a dedicated playroom, a bright home office, or a secondary dining space. From here, double patio doors open out directly onto the rear garden.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to deliver on space. The first and second bedrooms are both genuine doubles with plenty of room for wardrobes and furnishings, while the third bedroom is a well-proportioned single. The family bathroom, located at the rear, is neatly equipped with a bath and shower.

Externally, the rear garden is of a good size and mostly laid to lawn, providing a safe and private space for children to play or for summer entertaining. The single garage, featuring a traditional metal up-and-over door, is conveniently located close to the house with the added benefit of that private driveway space in front. This is a solid, practical, and welcoming home in a prime residential spot.

About eXp UK, South West

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
