OWNER INSIGHT
"Lilac Cottage has been my home for twenty happy years, but time is catching up and the idea of downsizing is very attractive. I will miss the gardens very much as there is always a space to relax in the sun, or shade on hot summer days. I am planning to stay very local, as for me the Warberries district is a very special part of Torquay, and it’s no mistake that the Victorians chose to build their fine homes on its southerly slopes above the harbour. Wellswood is also close at hand providing all one could need."
