A Distinguished Edwardian Residence on One of Torquay’s Most Admired Roads

A gracious and elegant Edwardian home - arguably the most attractive on Parkhurst Road - offered to the market for the first time in over 20 years. Positioned on a substantial plot with an impressive frontage, the property provides extensive parking for multiple vehicles, boats or motorhomes, all set well back from the road to enjoy exceptional privacy and seclusion.

The house stands within a highly regarded tree-lined address, popular with families thanks to its proximity to both Torquay Grammar Schools and excellent local primaries. The rear garden is every bit as impressive as the approach - a generous level lawn framed by established trees and shrubs, with a broad patio terrace ideal for entertaining and summer gatherings, all enclosed by a beautiful stone boundary wall.

Inside, the home offers grand proportions, period character and a well-balanced layout. The entrance vestibule opens into a spacious and welcoming reception hallway finished with Oak flooring, which continues through to the kitchen breakfast room. To the front lies an elegant open-plan lounge and dining space, flooded with natural light from tall windows and a beautiful bay window. A feature fireplace and graceful ceiling height add to the home’s timeless appeal.

The kitchen breakfast room is a standout space, extended to create a wonderful social hub with an island, plenty of room for informal dining and lovely views across the rear gardens. A range cooker, integral appliances and a separate utility room with garden access complete this practical yet stylish heart of the home. A ground-floor cloakroom/WC adds further convenience.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three well-appointed double bedrooms including a bay-fronted principal bedroom with a generous en-suite. A further double to the front enjoys a bright, open outlook, and the family bathroom features both bath and shower cubicle alongside a useful airing cupboard. The top floor provides a spacious fourth double bedroom, ideal for guests, older children or home working.

Externally, the property benefits from a detached single garage and adjoining carport, complementing the extensive parking at the front.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly special Edwardian residence of charm, scale and privacy in one of Torquay’s most desirable residential settings.
