Elevate Your Lifestyle in This Period Masterpiece – A Hidden Paradise
Tucked away in the leafy allure of Torquay's coveted Wellswood area of Torbay, this captivating three-bedroom Victorian apartment beckons those with a taste for architectural features and unspoiled outdoor bliss. Forming the elegant lower level of a stately historic villa, it delivers a high degree of seclusion: a self-contained haven with its classical featured main entrance a sweeping private gravel driveway, and the security of freehold ownership (complemented by a near-perpetual 962-year lease). Mere footsteps from Wellswood's array of artisan shops, seaside eateries, and glittering bay views, yet worlds apart in its own verdant sanctuary – this is urban elegance redefined.

Opulent Interiors:
Space, Style, and Stories Woven into Every Corner Cross the threshold via a classic oak portal topped with a luminous fanlight, and you're enveloped in a vestibule aglow with heritage warmth – think sunlit arches and earthy stone floors that nod to bygone grandeur.

The airy hallway unfolds with vaulted heights, sculpted plasterwork, and smart wardrobes, priming you for a layout that flows with intuitive grace.
Commanding attention is the Classic Victorian lounge, a sunlit symphony where a curved bay vista – complete with seamless glass sliders – spills garden vistas indoors. Bask in the glow around a Fireplace hearth, a nod to Victorian era, all set beneath a canopy of intricate mouldings that whisper of lavish soirees past.
Culinary creatives will adore the heart-of-home kitchen, a blend of timeless beams and contemporary flair: bespoke joinery, resilient quartz counters, a versatile gas range with dual ovens, and a boiler discreetly integrated. Spill over into the adjacent breakfast nook for dawn coffees amid stained-glass hues, or go on through to the laundry annex – plumbed for essentials. The formal Dining Area, with its vaulted beams and clever niches, hosts everything from candlelit dinners to lively brunches with effortless poise.

Lavish Bedroom Retreats:
Each of the three airy doubles is a retreat unto itself, laced with en-suite luxuries:

Principal Suite: Overlooking the leafy expanse, this vast chamber invites through garden-flanking sliders and a shuttered oriel window, its lofty proportions ideal for a dressing enclave or reading nook. It links to a sumptuous shared spa bath – think deep soaking tub with jets, a rainfall enclosure, heritage vanity, and discreet facilities – doubling as a hallway haven.
Guest Double: Front-facing for morning light, this refined space sports heritage rails and subtle friezes, paired with a compact wet room boasting a sleek cubicle, classic basin, and loo for self-sufficient stays.
Flexible Third Haven: Doubles as a sunlit workspace or library, with direct terrace egress via glazed panels, plus a tailored shower suite featuring ergonomic fixtures and sidelight serenity – versatility incarnate.

Outside The Grounds:
A private and south-facing landscaped garden – your secluded hideaway amid town living. This residence unveils a delightful expanse of greenery that evokes the romance of rural life. The grounds are a symphony of colour throughout the seasons: whispering evergreens, rugged stone accents, and sun-warmed seating nooks for twilight soirées. A powered garden pavilion stands ready as a creative studio, potting shed, or al fresco lounge. Enclosed by mature hedges and stone walls for utmost privacy, this bountiful backdrop isn’t just an amenity – it’s an extension of the soul, perfect for budding horticulturists, family barbecues, or beautiful Torbay sunsets.

Agents Notes;
Local Levy: Band E via Torbay Council
Ownership: Freehold assurance (999-year lease since late '98), with ad-hoc 50/50 upkeep splits alongside the upper dwelling – freedom without the fees.
Heritage Halo: Nestled in a cherished Conservation Zone, safeguarding its timeless patina.
Digital Lifeline: Ultrafast fibre up to 1800Mbps down/220Mbps up through Openreach – powering hybrid workdays or binge-worthy evenings.
