Description
The property is situated within a prominent and highly desirable position at the lower end of Torquay town centre, close to the harbourside and seafront. This area is particularly popular with tourists due to its proximity to local attractions, restaurants, beaches and coastal walks. Its central yet leisure-focused setting makes it ideally suited for continued use as holiday accommodation, benefiting from strong seasonal demand and year-round visitor appeal. Additionally, the location is equally attractive for the residential lettings market, appealing to tenants seeking convenient access to amenities and transport links. The property comprises a terraced freehold arranged as three self-contained flats. The accommodation includes a ground floor studio flat (restricted to holiday use), a first-floor two-bedroom flat, and a spacious two-bedroom maisonette arranged over the upper floors. Originally developed in 2020, the property has since undergone further improvements and refurbishment, resulting in a high-quality finish across all units. The interiors are well presented, modern, and designed to suit both short-term and longer-term occupation. The property is currently operated primarily as a holiday let investment, with established bookings via Airbnb and Booking.com. This provides an attractive opportunity for an incoming purchaser to continue trading immediately. Alternatively, the standard of accommodation would support a transition to permanent residential lettings, with strong demand anticipated due to the quality of finish and central coastal location. Externally, the ground floor studio benefits from a small private courtyard area, while Flat 2 enjoys a sun deck accessed from the master bedroom. A communal hallway provides access to all units and includes a designated bin storage area.
