Description

48 Ridgeway Heights, Ridgeway Road, Torquay, TQ1 2ND

New to the market is this spacious upper floor apartment, forming part of the well-established Ridgeway Heights development on sought-after Ridgeway Road. Occupying a commanding elevated position above Torquay, the building enjoys a striking setting, with the apartment itself benefiting from sea views from selected aspects and lift access to all floors. Available to purchase straight away with no onward chain.

Access is via a well-kept communal ground floor entrance with secure telephone entry system, while lifts serve all levels for ease and convenience. The apartment offers generous proportions throughout and presents an excellent opportunity for a buyer looking to modernise and add their own stamp, with the pricing reflecting the cosmetic updating now required.

Internally, the accommodation is well laid out and includes a large welcoming hallway with useful storage cupboards, a spacious lounge/dining room, and a modern kitchen/breakfast room enjoying a lovely outlook. There are two double bedrooms, both with fitted storage, with the principal bedroom being a generous double. The accommodation is completed by a separate bathroom and separate WC, adding practicality to the layout.

Outside, parking is on road, with a good amount available nearby. The apartment is offered within a well-regarded block with clear management rules in place, including no pets and no holiday letting permitted.

This apartment will appeal to a wide range of buyers. For a lock-up-and-leave purchaser, the secure communal entry, lift access and manageable accommodation make it an easy property to come and go from. For a first-time buyer, it offers excellent space compared to many apartments in this price range, along with the chance to improve cosmetically over time and add value. For downsizers, the lift access, practical layout and proximity to Wellswood, the harbour and nearby walks make it a very convenient and enjoyable base. It could also suit a long-term buy-to-let investor, particularly those looking for a well-proportioned apartment in a consistently desirable Torquay location, although it is important to note that holiday letting is not permitted within the building.

At Absolute Sales & Lettings we do modern estate agency a bit differently. We're local and independent to our core, and always focus on delivering a totally bespoke approach to selling and letting properties, combining our local expertise and a powerful network with unique property marketing campaigns. Founding Director Simon Fisher first opened our doors in 2010, and are now proud to not only have 3 well-established offices across Torbay, but to also have been presented with multiple coveted awards, including 'GOLD South West Regional Estate Agency' at the prestigious Negotiator Awards. We're also incredibly proud and active supporters of our local charity, Rowcroft Hospice.

When choosing Absolute, you'll meet a devoted, experienced and well-connected team of property professionals who will work alongside you to make your home or investment property stand out from the crowd, ultimately achieving you the best price in the right timescale. Our innovative ethos has always put us at the forefront of contemporary estate agency, from the use of the latest property technology, to the modern designs of our offices and in-house marketing. Above all else, our primary goal is to provide you with an outstanding level of attentiveness, care and expertise.

Our Torquay Sales branch is headed up by Director Darren Hole, who has been working in Torbay estate agency since 1997. Darren is assisted by our highly accomplished Torquay team, including Senior Property Consultants Tina Liddiard and Frank Earnshaw, who have been helping Torquay residents with their properties from our sleek Wellswood office since 2016. Selling your home is one of the biggest financial decisions you will ever have to make and choosing who to trust with this is key to a successful sale. Our vendors love our professional photography, bespoke brochures, 3D virtual tours and extensive social media marketing that we are able to offer, and buyers find them invaluable when selecting which properties to view.

We're also proud to have a highly-established lettings team, which is headed up by our Lettings Director Chelsey Earnshaw who won the coveted 'Best Property Manager Gold Award' at the Sunday Times Letting Agency of the Year Awards. Chelsey is ably-assisted by our experienced Lettings Manager Natalie Cook. A unique part of our lettings service is that you'll be assigned a designated property manager who will look after you and all aspects of the lettings process, including ensuring your compliance. If you are looking for an agent to manage your property as if it was their own, we'd love to talk to you.
