Description

Cliff Court is an exceptional COASTAL RESIDENCE WITH FOUR ADJOINING SELF-CONTAINED HOLIDAY APARTMENTS, occupying a prime position within one of Torbay’s most exclusive cul-de-sacs, perfectly positioned to capture captivating views across Tor Bay. The property seamlessly combines an impressive family home with an established lifestyle and income opportunity. Whilst connected, the principal residence and apartments each enjoy an excellent degree of privacy and independence, benefitting from their own entrances and separate driveway parking, with the main house enjoying the exclusivity of a double gated entrance.

The principal residence provides extensive and beautifully proportioned family accommodation, featuring generous reception space and five traditional bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities. The adjoining apartments are equally appealing, each enjoying sea views, a lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Three of the apartments are further enhanced by private balconies from which to take in the coastal outlook.

Enviably located, the property sits just a short stroll from Torquay seafront and railway station, with the picturesque promenade leading past the renowned Torre Abbey Sands beach, historic Torre Abbey and its surrounding meadows, the Princess Theatre, and onward to the Marina and vibrant harbourside. Cockington Country Park, extending to approximately 460 acres of beautiful woodland, lakes and open meadows, is equally accessible, whilst travel south leads to the neighbouring coastal towns of Paignton and Brixham. Cliff Court presents a lifestyle in South Devon, effortlessly combining elegant coastal living with the potential for established income generation.

OWNERS' INSIGHT

"We have greatly enjoyed living at Cliff Court. Set at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with sea views to the rear. The level gardens are a particular highlight, beautifully planted, private, secure, and designed as a tranquil retreat. Over the years, we have made many improvements, and there remains exciting potential to convert the roof space into additional accommodation. The roof was replaced around 15 years ago with future expansion in mind, offering the opportunity to create stunning panoramic views across Torbay. The four self-contained apartments sit adjacent to the main residence yet feel entirely separate, thanks to thoughtful design. A garden wall divides parking from the private front garden, guests have their own dedicated entrance, and rear balconies are screened for privacy. With independent keysafe access, as owners we can enjoy complete privacy and uninterrupted enjoyment of the main home."

STEP INSIDE THE MAIN HOUSE

Approached via a double gated entrance, the main house immediately conveys a sense of warmth and welcome. A porch opens to the reception hall, with cloakroom and under stairs storage leading off. Double doors open to the dining room, featuring an exposed brick chimney breast with wood burning stove and French doors to the garden. The dining room links seamlessly to the sitting room, family room and kitchen. The sitting room enjoys sea views framed by a bay window, whilst an ornate fireplace and corniced ceiling add character. A separate study provides an ideal space to work from home. The family room, with feature fireplace, opens to the conservatory, creating an inviting area for family gatherings with garden access. The kitchen is fitted with sleek white cabinetry, granite worktops and a breakfast bar. Double ovens, hob and space for a fridge/freezer. A utility room provides further storage, space for white goods, and access to both the driveway and garden.

STEP UPSTAIRS

From the reception hall, a turned staircase rises to the first floor, where five well proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable and versatile accommodation for family living. The principal bedroom enjoys one of the property’s finest views, taking in the coastal outlook, and benefits from an ensuite shower room. The second and third bedrooms are equally generous doubles, one enjoying an attractive outlook over the garden and towards the sea, whilst the other benefits from its own ensuite shower room. The fourth and fifth bedrooms are also comfortable doubles, ideal for family, guests, or flexible use as hobbies or workspace. Completing the accommodation, the family bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a bath and shower facility, WC, bidet and wash basin.

STEP OUTSIDE

Cliff Court enjoys extensive parking provision, with both the principal residence and holiday apartments benefitting from their own separate driveway areas, ensuring a sense of privacy and independence. The gravelled driveways comfortably accommodate multiple vehicles, whilst the main house enjoys the exclusivity of walled, double gated access, enhanced by a central palm feature. The garden can be accessed via pathways to the side of the house or directly from the utility room, opening to the attractive garden enjoying a sunny south easterly aspect. A terrace extends across the rear of the house, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation, with direct access from both the conservatory and dining room. A substantial timber shed provides excellent practical space, equally suited as a workshop or for the storage of coastal and leisure equipment, from paddleboards and fishing gear to golf clubs and garden essentials.

STEP INSIDE THE APARTMENTS

The apartments benefit from their own private entrance, approached via a small flight of steps leading to a sheltered storm porch and communal reception hall, with staircase rising to the first floor landing. Designed as one bedroom holiday apartments, each offers comfortable and well planned accommodation, all enjoying sea views. Apartments 2 and 4 are positioned on the ground floor, both benefitting from raised balconies facing seaward, with Apartment 4 being the largest of the four and capable of accommodating up to four guests. Apartments 1 and 3 occupy the first floor, accessed via a turned staircase, with Apartment 1 mirroring the layout of Apartment 2 (both capable of accommodating up to four guests) and arguably enjoying the finest balcony outlook across Tor Bay.
