Description

Dunboyne Court, St Marychurch Road, Torquay

Positioned on the first floor of this smart and well regarded modern retirement development, Flat 22 is a bright and spacious two bedroom apartment designed for comfortable, independent living with the reassurance of on-site support if and when required.

Enjoying a sunny corner position with open views, this welcoming apartment offers approximately 68.9 sq. m. / 741.9 sq. ft. of well planned accommodation with a light and airy feel throughout. The layout is practical, easy to manage and thoughtfully arranged for day to day convenience.

A welcoming entrance hall gives access to all rooms and provides useful space for coats, shoes and storage. The main sitting/dining room is a particularly pleasing room with plenty of space for both lounge and dining furniture, creating a sociable main living area. Doors open onto a private balcony, offering a lovely place to sit out, enjoy the fresh air and make the most of the natural light.

The kitchen sits just off the living space and is well proportioned, fitted with a good range of units, ample worktop space and everything positioned for ease and convenience.

Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles. The principal bedroom is a good size and enjoys access to the Jack and Jill en suite, making it an ideal main bedroom with a peaceful and private feel. Bedroom two is another generous double and would work equally well for guests, hobbies or as an additional sitting room if preferred. The Jack and Jill shower room is accessed from both bedrooms and is fitted with a shower, WC and basin, all designed with practicality and ease of use in mind.

Dunboyne Court is a development that has clearly been designed to offer much more than just an apartment. Residents can enjoy a strong sense of community alongside independent living, with an excellent range of communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, restaurant, activity/television room, mobile hairdressing service, communal roof terrace, guest suite, buggy store and attractive communal gardens. Staff are available 24 hours a day, emergency call assistance is in place, and additional care can be arranged if required, giving owners genuine flexibility and peace of mind.

Outside, the development is approached via secure entrance doors leading into a welcoming reception area and lobby. There are communal gardens for residents to enjoy, mainly laid to lawn with mature planting and seating areas, together with a communal roof terrace accessed from the third floor. Parking is available subject to availability.

All in all, this is a spacious and well positioned apartment within a development that offers real reassurance, a sociable environment and an excellent level of convenience for day to day living.

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.
