Description

This beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home enjoys a prime position just a short walk from Torquay's marina, local beaches and Wellswood Village. The property is set within the highly regarded Museum Way, an intimate development of just nine contemporary homes.

Built by award-winning local developers Messrs OJ Developments, the property forms part of a unique collection of modern homes designed for comfortable, low-maintenance living. The house benefits from the remainder of a 10-year LABC New Home Warranty and is ideal for purchasers seeking a stylish home in a convenient coastal location.

The development itself is approached via a brick-paved driveway with attractive green landscaping, creating a peaceful tucked-away setting moments from the harbourside and town centre energy. As its name suggests, Museum Way sits alongside the well-regarded Torquay Museum, an impressive historic building dating from circa 1875.

Externally, the property has a strong contemporary appeal with its crisp white rendered elevations complemented by anthracite aluminium windows and doors. To the front, there is tandem driveway parking for two vehicles along with an EV charging point. To the rear a beautifully landscaped enclosed garden provides a sheltered and private outdoor space, enhanced by an original stone wall which creates a striking and characterful backdrop.

Situated off Babbacombe Road within the Torquay Harbour Conservation Area, the location combines convenience with lifestyle appeal. The harbourside, everyday shops and local services are all within walking distance, while nearby Torwood Gardens offers a pleasant green space. Regular bus services run along Babbacombe Road, including the well-known open-top bus route between the harbourside and St Marychurch.

The Approach

Set within the well-presented Museum Way development, this property is approached from Museum Road, a peaceful position just off Babbacombe Road. The development itself is entered via an attractive block-paved driveway framed by pillars, creating an impressive first impression, with the property situated on the left-hand side. To the side of the house, a private block-paved driveway provides tandem parking for two vehicles along with an EV charging point and secure access to the rear garden. Entry to the property is through a modern composite front door, opening into a welcoming reception hallway. Finished with tiled flooring and fresh white décor, the space offers a bright and contemporary introduction to the home. From here there is access to a useful built-in storage cupboard, a radiator, a staircase rising to the first floor, and internal doors leading to the cloakroom, kitchen and living room.

Cloakroom

Continuing the tiled flooring from the reception hallway, the cloakroom is fitted with a modern white suite comprising a low-level WC positioned beneath an obscure double-glazed front-facing window, and a pedestal wash hand basin with tiled splashback. A central heating radiator completes the space.

Kitchen

With matching tiled flooring flowing through the reception hallway, the kitchen is stylishly appointed with a contemporary range by Symphony. Designed with practicality and appearance in mind, it offers a selection of storage and preparation space, with high-gloss white wall units complemented by charcoal grey gloss base cupboards and solid work surfaces over. A stainless steel sink and drainer is positioned beneath a double-glazed window to the front, while integrated appliances include an oven, inset induction hob with extractor above, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.

Living Room/Diner

The sitting/dining room is bright and welcoming, enjoying a pleasant outlook onto the rear garden. French doors open directly onto the landscaped garden, creating an easy transition between inside and out. This makes the room ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Further natural light is provided by a double-glazed rear window, while carpeted flooring adds warmth and comfort. Generous in size, the room comfortably accommodates both lounge seating and a dining table, with a useful built-in cupboard providing practical understairs storage.

Bedroom & Bathroom Suites

The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room, offering ample space for wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture, and is further enhanced by its own en-suite shower room. Finished in contemporary style, the en-suite comprises a shower cubicle with electric shower and tiled surround, pedestal wash basin, low-level WC set beneath an obscure double-glazed window, and a wall-mounted heated towel rail. The second bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property and is a comfortable double room, complete with a built-in wardrobe with sliding doors. Also enjoying a rear aspect, the third bedroom is a generous single room. Serving this floor is the main bathroom, fitted with a modern three-piece suite comprising a bath with mains shower over and tiled surround, pedestal wash basin with tiled splashback, and a low-level WC. There is also a wall-mounted mirrored and illuminated cabinet, tiled flooring, a heated towel rail, and an obscure double-glazed side window.

A Garden to Enjoy

To the rear, the property enjoys a particularly private and sheltered garden which has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a stylish yet easy-to-maintain outdoor space. It offers a peaceful setting with a striking backdrop of character stone walling, creating a distinctive and attractive environment. A generous paved terrace provides ample space for outside seating and al fresco dining, while gravelled borders with established planting soften the space and add colour and interest throughout the year. The garden is well enclosed, enhancing privacy, and is perfectly suited to those seeking a low-maintenance area in which to unwind and enjoy the sun. External lighting further enhances the setting in the evening, giving the garden a warm and inviting atmosphere long after the day draws to a close.
