Description

Occupying a generous and secluded plot within the highly regarded Lincombes district of Torquay, AYMAR presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached family bungalow with a remarkable history having remained within the same family ownership since its construction in 1934.

Originally built for the current owner's great uncle the property has been cherished by successive generations of the same family for over ninety years. Homes with such a longstanding connection to one family are increasingly uncommon and offer buyers the opportunity to create the next chapter in the story of a truly special home.

The property enjoys an attractive position set back within its mature gardens with established boundaries creating a high degree of privacy and seclusion. The traditional rendered elevations and distinctive roofline provide excellent kerb appeal, while the generous plot offers significant outdoor space rarely found in such a convenient location.

The accommodation is both versatile and surprisingly spacious, arranged predominantly across the ground floor. A welcoming entrance porch opens into a generous reception hallway creating an immediate sense of space and serving as the central hub of the home.

The principal sitting room is a particularly attractive room, featuring a broad curved bay window overlooking the gardens fitted display shelving and a fireplace which creates a natural focal point. The proportions throughout the property reflect the quality of homes built during this era with excellent ceiling heights and large windows allowing natural light to flood the accommodation.

The kitchen provides a practical working space with a range of fitted units, ample storage and direct access to the outside. Three bedrooms are located on the ground floor offering flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working requirements. A family bathroom and separate cloakroom/WC serve the ground floor accommodation.

A staircase rises from the reception hall to a substantial first floor bedroom. This versatile space would lend itself equally well as a principal bedroom suite, guest accommodation, hobbies room or home office and benefits from useful eaves storage.

While the property would benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation, it offers tremendous scope for a purchaser to personalise and enhance a home of genuine character and substance. The layout, room proportions and plot size provide excellent foundations for future improvement.

Externally, the gardens are a standout feature. Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature planting, they provide a wonderful sense of privacy and space. Established shrubs, flowering borders and specimen planting create an attractive backdrop throughout the seasons while the generous lawn offers plenty of space for children, pets or keen gardeners.

A driveway provides off road parking and leads to the garage, while additional useful ancillary space includes a store room and separate garden room, ideal for storage, hobbies or workshop use.

AYMAR represents a rare chance to acquire a substantial home on one of Torquay's most desirable residential roads, combining character, history, generous accommodation and a wonderful plot in a location that continues to be highly sought after.

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.
