OWNER INSIGHT

"When I was relocating to Torquay I was looking for a quality home in a peaceful yet convenient location, and that is exactly what I found here at Knockmore. Over the years I have found the location to be extremely tranquil and yet so very convenient, with local shops found in nearby Moor Lane and the amenities of St Marychurch and The Willows only a short drive away. I can honestly say that I have loved my time living here and it is with a 'heavy heart' that I have made the decision to leave and return to my homeland in Northern Ireland." "I really love my garden and this is something that I will certainly miss when I move. Over the years I have landscaped it to be able to enjoy the lovely outlook from all of the rooms, and planted to provide colour throughout each of the seasons. When planning the garden I also wanted to ensure that there was a patio adjoining the conservatory and I am so glad that I did. I regularly sit in this area as it is where I am able to enjoy the last of the sunshine and I am quite often found dining here in the evening when the weather allows!"
