2 bedroom ground floor flat for sale

Set in the very heart of St Marychurch amidst its vibrant village atmosphere, this GROUND FLOOR FLAT forms part of a small, select development benefitting from a private entrance, allocated parking space, and compact internal courtyard.

Lifton House stands just a short, level saunter to all the amenities St Marychurch has to offer including local shops, chain stores, medical centres, eateries, Churches, post office and banking facilities to name but a few. A short distance further, yet within comfortable walking distance lies Torquay's Golf Club and the picturesque Babbacombe Downs with the shingle beaches of Oddicombe and Bababcombe below which can be accessed by the renowned funicular Cliff Railway or winding wooded pathways.

OWNER'S INSIGHT

"Lifton House has been part of my family for many years, originally purchased as commercial building, which we later converted in 2009 to the development of today. The property has always been an investment, and my family have enjoyed a healthy occupancy level from excellent tenants. The location is one of the most convenient you will find in Torbay, being literally a few steps from the village amenities, with Babbacombe Downs, beaches, Golf Club, and so much more a short walk. I have no doubt whoever takes over the flat will enjoy all its attributes."
