OWNERS INSIGHT

"We have owned the property since 1992, when we moved in and made it our very happy home. We specifically chose this location as it was close to our business, but also because we knew that it is so extremely convenient, with the comprehensive facilities of St Marychurch almost on the doorstep, the scenic Babbacombe Downs and beaches also easily accessible, all of which we have thoroughly enjoyed during our time here. The property has offered great flexibility, with us having enjoyed living on the spacious top floor, whilst being able to accommodate a close friend within the 'studio' to the ground floor. This has provided us both with extremely comfortable homes and also provided us with an income. We have now decided that the time is right for us to downsize and enable new owners to appreciate what our delightful home offers."

    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
