This FINE DETACHED BUNGALOW is set in a peaceful road on the fringe of Torquay with attractive gardens, driveway parking, and garage. The accommodation has been extended to provide an additional linked room leading from the rear bedroom, ideally suited as a dressing room or study, and potential to create an ensuite. The bungalow is tastefully presented, although priced to reflect a degree of modernisation which would now be beneficial.

The bungalow stands on the outskirts of Torquay, yet conveniently placed for access to local shops at Barton and the 'village' amenities at St Marychurch where Torquay Golf Club can be found. The pretty Watcombe Cove lies at the base of the wooded hillside by crossing the nearby Teignmouth Road where the South Devon Coastal Footpaths can be joined toward Shaldon and Teignmouth to the north or Torquay and wider Torbay to the South.


EPC Rating: E

SELLER'S INSIGHT

"Our Dad reluctantly made the move down from London to be closer to us, and after initial reservations that Devon was a different world, he realised it was actually a beautiful place to live! Dad enjoyed five happy years at the bungalow, and it was perfect with his ailing health with one level living, and level gardens. It's a very peaceful road, although only a matter of minutes to shops or beautiful walks."

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
