Description

Set within the heart of St Marychurch, this TWO BEDROOM GROUND FLOOR APARTMENT forms part of Welton Park, an exclusive gated development of just eight luxury homes. Hidden behind a natural stone wall and accessed through automatic gates, the development features six striking apartments and two elegant townhouses, all crafted to an exceptional standard by a respected local developer. This beautifully appointed ground-floor apartment benefits from secure allocated parking and its own private garden, providing a rare sense of space and tranquillity.

Conveniently located just a level saunter to the pedestrianised shopping precinct with wide choice of shops and eateries, and the scenic Babbacombe Downs with shingle beaches below equally accessible. Numerous leisure and sports clubs are close at hand, with Babbacombe Corinthian Sailing Club at the base of the precinct, and Torquay Golf Club virtually a tee shot away.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"We have lived at Welton Park since it was newly built and have truly loved our time here. It’s a beautiful apartment with the rare benefit of being on the ground floor, complete with its own private garden and a parking space, and it’s just around the corner from the shops, cafés, restaurants, and so much more in the St Marychurch precinct, basically right on our doorstep. We would happily stay here forever, but we’ve made the decision to move to be closer to family. If we could pick this apartment up and take it with us, we absolutely would."
