DESCRIPTION A well-presented two double bedroom modern purpose built APARTMENT set within a secure gated development on the wooded hillside of the Warberries. Situated on the First Floor of the development the apartment enjoys a westerly aspect with well-planned accommodation offering a very pleasant living room featuring double glazed doors onto the full width balcony, two good sized bedrooms (1 en-suite) and benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and allocated parking. The Atrium was designed as a landmark development in 2003 by Westbury Homes to a stylish design with a beautiful interior courtyard where exotic plants flourish and where residents can relax at the table and chairs provided whilst being undercover in this glazed atrium.

Local shops and facilities can be found in nearby Wellswood 'village' and there is a regular bus service on the main Babbacombe Road. Our company have the pleasure to offer this CHAIN FREE apartment and an early viewing is highly recommended. 

OWNERS INSIGHT "When I was looking for my new home 16 years ago, I visited The Atrium and immediately felt at home in this apartment. It provided me with exactly the space that I needed and with it being a modern purpose-built development I could appreciate that it was an easily maintained home. The fact that the building was gated also gave me the feel of extra security and peace of mind.

Having been born and raised in Torbay I knew the Warberries to be a highly regarded residential location, with the mature wooded hillside was an attraction to me and I thoroughly enjoyed this during my time living there. I found the setting to be convenient, being perched up on the hillside the location has been extremely tranquil, yet with a comprehensive range of shops and amenities found at the base of the hill in either direction. When I was looking to purchase my new home these were attractions that I had to look hard to replicate. In more recent years I decided to rent the apartment and this has proved to be extremely successful for me as well.

It is with a heavy heart that I have now taken the decision to sell the apartment but I feel confident that any new prospective purchaser will enjoy the benefits that I have over the years and will find The Atrium to provide them with either a happy principal home or quality second home."
