SELLERS INSIGHT

"We lived in a lovely house with a big garden, and it was perfect, but in time even with help it became too much to manage. We decided to move to the seaside, and Torquay, with an apartment, seemed to fit our dream for the next phase of our lives. It truly was perfect. My husband was constantly entertained by the activity out on the sea, with the Air Show a particular highlight; it felt as though the Red Arrows were performing just for us. I loved being able to entertain guests as I always had, with the space and facilities the apartment and the wider Torbay area gave us. But life changes. I find myself rattling around on my own now, and it feels like time to start a new chapter."
