An attractive Victorian villa occupying a corner plot position, Park House has been modified, extended and improved and now has 17 bedrooms, 16 with ensuite.

The internal accommodation is conventionally laid out with the principle day rooms in the original building on the ground floor whilst the majority of the bedrooms are located on the upper floor. The extent of the site means that there is scope to extend the building subject to the usual planning permissions.

Location

Park House occupies a corner plot position within a level walk to a range of local day to day amenities within the St Marychurch district of Torquay.

The town of Torquay, along with the neighbouring, smaller towns of Paignton and Brixham forms the area known as Torbay, acknowledged as the 'English Riviera' and famed for its beaches, warm climate and palm tree lined sea front. It also attracts a high retirement population making it an excellent location in which to operate a care home. The town is well served by major retailers, supermarkets and the like as well as a commercial centre, regional hospital and other major employers.

The town is connected via the A380 to the Cathedral city of Exeter, some 24 miles distant where access can also be gained to the motorway network at M5, Junction 31. There is a branch line rail service within Torquay which connects with the main Penzance to Paddington line at Newton Abbot, just over seven miles away.

Internal Details

The accommodation is conventionally arranged over ground and first floor with the upper floor being accessed by a passenger lift.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged as follows.

Ground Floor - Five bedrooms with ensuite.
First Floor - 12 bedrooms, 11 with ensuite.

The remainder of the accommodation includes although is not limited to main entrance, two residents lounges, dining room, kitchen, office, laundry and various store rooms.

External Details

The property stands in a mature and well established corner plot with a driveway at the front providing off road parking for a number of vehicles.

The gardens, which stretch around from the front to the side of the property are mainly lawned and bordered by a range of established trees and hedging. The garden is enclosed by fencing whilst immediately outside the lounges there is a sun terrace with an outlook over the garden.

The Opportunity

Having owned and operated the home for well over three decades, the current owner has taken the difficult decision to close the home (May 2025) as they are now looking to retire.

The home had been well established in the area for many years and the opportunity now exists for someone else to re-establish a care facility at the property.

The extent of the building and site means it could also suit a variety of other care uses or possible re-development, subject to any necessary consents being obtained.

Tenure

We are inviting offers on an asking price of £850,000 for the Freehold property asset with vacant possession.

Regulatory

The home was previously registered with CQC to provide residential care to a maximum of 21 residents.

Any party seeking to re-establish a regulated care facility at the property should carry out their won due diligence prior to committing to a purchase.
