Description

A characterful Grade II listed home positioned in a convenient central Torquay location offering spacious accommodation, a low maintenance balcony shared driveway parking and exciting scope for a buyer to update and enhance to their own taste.

The property sits along a quieter road with unrestricted street parking nearby together with shared driveway parking. The entrance is approached through an ornate iron gate with a small courtyard style frontage laid with artificial grass, providing a simple and manageable approach to the home.

The front door opens directly into a generous sitting room a bright and well proportioned reception space with multiple windows allowing plenty of natural light. The room is finished in a warm neutral tone with the fireplace forming an attractive central feature. From the sitting room a glazed door opens directly onto the balcony creating an easy link between the main living area and outside space.

The balcony is a particularly pleasant feature designed for low maintenance use and positioned beside a mature tree with a leafy outlook and distant woodland views. It provides a peaceful space for morning coffee, outdoor dining or simply enjoying some afternoon sun.

The kitchen sits adjacent to the sitting room and offers a practical layout with plentiful cupboard storage warm wood fronted units, tile-effect flooring and ample worktop space. There is room for appliances along with a mid height electric oven, gas hob and a useful breakfast bar with seating for at least two.

A winding staircase leads down to the lower ground floor where a spacious landing provides useful flexibility. This area could work well for additional storage, a reading space, occasional seating or a compact work-from-home area, depending on the buyer’s requirements.

The main shower room is impressively sized and fitted, a combined WC and vanity unit and a large sliding door shower enclosure. The space is generous, practical and well arranged.

There are three bedrooms, all offering a good degree of versatility. The principal bedromm has a useful built in storage and enough room for further bedroom furniture. High ceilings add to the feeling of space. The second bedroom continues the same character with appealing alcoves and natural furniture positions while the third bedroom is currently arranged with a built in desk and storage beneath, making it ideal as a bedroom, guest room, hobby space or home office.

A further separate WC is positioned centrally fitted with a white WC, vanity unit, natural stone-style tiled splashback and attractive timber shelving.

The property offers clear potential for a buyer to modernise and refine while retaining the character and proportions associated with a listed building. Its combination of space, location, parking, balcony and scope makes it a particularly interesting opportunity in central Torquay.

The property offers practical low maintenance outside areas. To the front there is a modest courtyard style approach behind an ornate iron gate. The sitting room opens onto a private balcony positioned beside a mature tree and enjoying a leafy outlook towards distant woodland. This gives the home a valuable outdoor seating area without the upkeep of a traditional garden.

About Absolute, Torbay

13 Ilsham Road Torquay TQ1 2JG

Local knowledge. More than 200 years of experience. One team.

Absolute began in Torquay in 2010 with Founding Director Simon Fisher opening our doors as a small, independent estate agency with a straightforward ambition: to offer a fresh, more personal approach to property.

Since then, we’ve grown considerably, but we’ve never lost what made us different in the first place. We’re still proudly independent, still combine our local expertise and powerful network with unique property marketing campaigns, and still believe that success in estate agency comes down to people.

Today, our experienced team covers the whole of Torbay and the wider South Devon area, bringing together more than 200 years of combined local property experience. Over the years, we’ve built strong, genuine relationships with people across Torbay, getting to know not just the properties, but also the people who make the houses their homes. This local insight and understanding allows us to carefully match buyers with their perfect properties, while giving our clients the benefit of a huge depth of knowledge; from understanding the local market and getting the right price, through to negotiating a sale or managing a property once tenants have moved in.

Bringing our teams closer together has made us stronger. We’re now one connected Torbay-wide team, sharing knowledge and experience to give you the support and results you need.

Headed up by Director Darren Hole, who has worked in the Torbay property market since 1997, our sales team are highly experienced, Propertymark qualified professionals who know Torbay inside out. Our focus is to provide honest, straightforward advice combined with striking property marketing, including professional photography, bespoke brochures, videography, 3D virtual tours and targeted social media campaigns. The result is a service that feels personal, but most importantly has the power and reach to make your property stand out.

Our specialist lettings team is overseen by Lettings Director Chelsey Earnshaw, who won the coveted 'Best Property Manager Gold Award' at the Sunday Times Letting Agency of the Year Awards, plus experienced lettings managers, dedicated property managers and accounts specialists. This means that landlords have a comprehensive team behind them who handle everything from finding the right tenant and managing the letting process through to compliance, ongoing property management and providing strategic advice to protect your investment.

We’ve been fortunate enough to receive industry recognition along the way, including both Gold and Bronze South West Regional Estate Agency at The Negotiator Awards. What matters most to us, however, is the trust local people place in us time and time again. We’re incredibly proud of our hundreds of five-star reviews, but nothing means more than someone getting in touch because a friend, family member or neighbour told them, “Go with Absolute”. It’s without doubt the biggest compliment we can receive.

Whether you’re thinking about selling, buying, letting or simply want some advice about your property, our team is always happy to have a chat.
