Capturing the essence of living in the English Riviera, this TOP FLOOR COASTAL APARTMENT commands exceptional SEA VIEWS over Torquay's Yacht Marina and into Tor Bay with its picturesque coastline, and tower of St John’s Church in the foreground. The views are most prominent from the spacious principal room which flows onto the south westerly facing balcony, and primary bedroom with corner window widening the westerly town view.

Braddons Cliffe stands prominently on the hillside above Torquay's town centre and bustling harbour, from where the sea front promenade leads past the Princess Theatre to the flagship Torre Abbey Sands Beach, Torre Abbey Meadow, and Torquay Train Station. The apartment has been priced to reflect general modernisation now beneficial, and internal stepped approach.


EPC Rating: F

OWNERS' INSIGHT

"It was all about the view when we first saw Braddons Cliffe and watching the sun glisten off the sea, or stormy weather roll in across the bay never ceases to amaze! The property is also bathed in sun being southerly facing, and relaxing just to sit on the balcony and watch the world go by. The garage parking and exceptional storage above was a big attraction, particularly for a coastal apartment where I'm sure new owners like us will have sailing equipment, paddleboards, or general items they need safely stored out of the apartment and accessible. Over more recent years the property has been a rental investment, and with our tenant recently buying a home, we have made the decision to sell rather than re-let. Fortunately we can offer the property chain free."

STEP INSIDE

Private entrance to the spacious RECEPTION HALL with skylight. Glazed door to the SITTING/DINING ROOM enjoying the bright south westerly orientation and full width patio doors and window providing the breathtaking sea views. Stepping out to the BALCONY from where the exceptional views are best enjoyed on a beautiful day, taking in the vista over the surrounding area, St John's Church tower, Pavilion, Inner harbour and wider Tor Bay with the stretching coastline. Open access from the principal room, and secondary access from the hall to the KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM also enjoying the fine views. Ample fitted storage and worktop space, with integrated oven, hob, filter hood, fridge and freezer. Provision for washing machine.
