Description
A FIRST FLOOR APARTMENT forming part of Welton Park, an exclusive development of just eight homes, ideally situated in the heart of St Marychurch. The development comprises just six striking apartments and two elegant townhouses, all constructed to an exceptional standard. Great care has been taken to reflect the character of the surrounding conservation area, with the development’s elegant period styling thoughtfully combined with a contemporary finish. This particular apartment has been beautifully maintained by its sole owner since new, offering light-filled, airy accommodation throughout. The property benefits from a convenient and desirable location, as well as the added security of gated living.
Enviably set in one of Torquay's most desirable districts, the development is a short, level saunter to the vibrant pedestrianised shopping precinct and just a few minutes walk away from the picturesque Babbacombe Downs from where access is gained to both Babbacombe and Oddicombe Beaches.

OWNERS INSIGHT
"I purchased Welton Park brand new in 2022 , I needed to downsize and make use of a more convenient location for shops and level access. It's a lovely bright and airy apartment and I have enjoyed getting to know and chatting with all the lovely neighbours. I will be very sad to leave my home at Welton Park but unfortunately due to my advancing years I have now made the decision to find a property more suitable for a 95 year old and be closer to my daughter. I wish all the best to the new owner and I'm sure they will enjoy the apartment and make many happy memories as I have”
