Nestled in a prestigious cul-de-sac of Georgian style homes constructed by Messrs Stoneman, a local builder of repute, this is the only DETACHED HOUSE within the development. The property has been a well loved home for our client’s family for many years and boasts generous, double fronted living space considerably larger than other properties in the Close, benefitting from four reception rooms, three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Attractive and easily managed gardens and a double width drive leading to a large garage complement the property.

 Thorncliff Close stands in the heart of leafy Wellswood, with the local amenities at Ilsham Road found within a short saunter, retaining a 'village' ambience complete with Post Office, delicatessen, bistro restaurant, the local Kents Pub, highly regarded Primary School and St Matthias Church. Picturesque walks are equally accessible through the wooded Ilsham Valley to Meadfoot Beach, one of Torbay's most beautiful beaches.

Our firm have the pleasure to market this fine home and an early accompanied viewing is highly recommended.

SELLER INSIGHT

"Camelot has been a happy family home for a number of decades, the rear, south and west facing garden has been very easy to maintain, as it is walled and very sheltered, and has been ideal for summertime al fresco dining with friends. As a family of nature lovers the trees nearby, which host a number of garden and woodland birds, have given us the privilege of hearing their beautiful songs in the Spring time. We have all enjoyed the amenities in nearby Ilsham Road with its excellent (in our opinion), restaurants, deli, post office and florists, to name but a few of the opportunities available there. Over the years, Camelot has been used as a walking base through the spectacular Ilsham Valley with Meadfoot beach beyond and the South West coastal path with access to local beaches, where we have enjoyed activities such as picnics, wild swimming, paddle boarding and wildlife watching - or when we have felt less active - supporting the various independent beachside cafes."

    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
