OWNER INSIGHT

We purchased the apartment brand new and as we lived away from the area we used it as a comfortable base for us when visiting family. We were immediately attracted to the development due to its modern design, the standard of the insulation of the building and with its first floor position we liked the fact that it was safe and secure when we were not occupying it. The convenience of the location was also another attraction for us. Woodhaye Gardens is situated within an easy walk of the shops and amenities on Torquay Harbourside, with the 'village' shopping parade in Wellswood found a short distance away in the opposite direction and the regular bus service on the nearby Babbacombe Road connects both of these. In more recent years we have used the apartment as a rental investment, having established tenants who have enjoyed the apartment as much as we have. It is with a very heavy heart that we have made the decision to sell but this will enable any prospective new owner to appreciate the benefits of living at Woodhaye Gardens.
