Torrs Park, Ilfracombe

The Elms Court, Torrs Park, Ilfracombe

An exceptional semi-detached period home, beautifully restored and renovated to an impeccable standard, blending timeless character with the comfort, efficiency and finish of a high-end new build. From the moment you arrive, it is immediately clear that this is a home unlike any other, immaculate throughout, thoughtfully designed and finished with incredible attention to detail.

Set behind gated access with an enclosed driveway and parking for multiple vehicles, the property enjoys a wonderful position with attractive views, generous gardens, balconies and entertaining spaces, alongside a substantial coach house offering huge further potential.

Inside, the home is absolutely faultless. Elegant vaulted ceilings, striking original features and grand proportions are paired effortlessly with luxurious contemporary finishes, eco-efficient upgrades and a carefully considered layout across four floors.

Ground Floor

The ground floor forms the true heart of the home. An impressive original entrance door opens into a stunning vaulted porch, showcasing the restored original front window and immediately setting the tone for the quality throughout.

From here, the welcoming central hallway features a grand staircase rising through the upper floors, alongside a secondary staircase leading to the lower ground floor.

The kitchen is a real showpiece, beautifully finished in rich forest green tones with white marble effect worktops, gold hardware and fully integrated appliances throughout. A large central island with breakfast bar creates a sociable focal point, while there is ample space for formal dining.

French doors open onto an elevated balcony overlooking the gardens, providing the perfect space for morning coffee or evening entertaining.

The living room is filled with natural light and centred around a striking fireplace with HETAS-registered wood burner, creating both warmth and atmosphere and 5-amp lighting sockets.

A substantial utility room provides extensive storage, generous worktop space, laundry facilities, a separate WC and additional external access. The utility holds the 300ltr hot water cylinder with secondary return pump for fast hot water delivery.

Lower Ground Floor

The lower ground floor offers outstanding flexibility and potential, ideal for multigenerational living, an annex, business space, gym, cinema room or games room. Accessed both internally and via its own separate entrance, the space can easily function independently from the main house.

A large open room currently lends itself perfectly to a gym, studio or entertainment space and benefits from its own WC and boiler room. There is also a separate double bedroom with en suite facilities, while existing plumbing allows for the addition of a kitchenette, creating an ideal self contained annex if desired. Doors lead onto a partly covered decking area, perfect for outdoor dining, hot tubs and entertaining, with steps descending into the rear garden.

First Floor

The first floor hosts a superb principal suite, complete with a spacious walk through dressing room and a beautifully appointed en suite featuring double sinks, a separate bath and walk in shower. The elegant forest green, white and gold palette continues seamlessly throughout.

This floor also includes a stylish family bathroom and a further room currently used as an office, which could equally serve as a fifth bedroom.

Second Floor

The second floor offers three further bedrooms, including a guest bedroom with its own en suite. A further family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. Bedroom three has service hatch for future hot/cold/waste connection, making a potential for a kitchenette and bedroom four enjoys lovely elevated views towards the coast, making it equally suited as a playroom, studio or additional sitting room. The top floor also has electric self-closing Velux windows and TV booster and loft access via hatch.

Coach House

The detached coach house is another outstanding feature of the property and offers enormous versatility. Arranged over two floors with planning permission in perpetuity for a roof conversion, it could serve as a substantial garage and workshop, accommodate multiple vehicles internally, or potentially be converted into additional living accommodation or an annex, subject to any necessary consents.

The coach house benefits from single phase electricity supply, mains water, mains drainage & gas supply. There is also scope to further enhance the property’s eco credentials, with solar panels on the coach house potentially increasing the EPC rating to an A.

Outside

The enclosed rear garden is generous and private, bordered by fencing and mature hedging, creating an ideal setting for families and entertaining alike. Multiple seating areas, balconies and decking spaces make the most of the views and outdoor lifestyle this home offers. Outside also benefits from sockets & 16amp supply, taps & additional water supply.

An additional 0.25 acre paddock backing directly onto the garden is also available to purchase separately.
