Brunel Park, Torquay

Set within a quiet residential position just a short walk from Brunel Woods is this DETACHED BUNGALOW now in need of full modernisation, offering a buyer the chance to shape a home entirely to their own taste. The accommodation is all on one level, with two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen and bathroom, and the layout leaves plenty of room to reconfigure or extend, subject to the necessary consents. Outside, the established southerly facing garden is a real asset, enjoying sunshine through most of the day, while the front of the property provides ample driveway parking leading to a garage.

Froude Avenue stands on the outskirts of Torquay not far from Maidencombe, yet conveniently placed for access to the 'village' amenities at St Marychurch where Torquay Golf Club can be found. The pretty Watcombe Cove lies at the base of the wooded hillside by crossing the nearby Teignmouth Road where the South Devon Coastal Footpaths can be joined toward Shaldon and Teignmouth to the north, or Torquay and wider Torbay to the South.
