3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

More comprehensive amenities can be found at nearby St Marychurch, with pedestrianised shopping precinct and Torquay Golf Club.

OWNER'S INSIGHT

"Having been my home now for over thirty years, it has been an emotional decision to decide to downsize, but the time is right for a new chapter. We wont be moving far, as the area has been one of the biggest attractions for us. As a professional mechanic and motorbike enthusiast, the garage, parking, and workshop spaces have been a god send. Many a happy memory has been made building or reconditioning bikes. The garden is exceptionally large, perfect for those who are green fingered or space for children to run and play. It really is a nice neighbourhood, and the open central green makes a pleasant view."
