5 bedroom penthouse for sale

Coastal Penthouse Apartment with Panoramic Sea & Harbour Views. Extensive Open Plan Principal Living Space. Five Bedrooms all En-Suite.

Perfectly positioned in the vibrant waterside location, this unique home presents a true lifestyle in the very heart of the English Riviera. Within a short saunter are mooring facilities at MDL Marina, host of waterside bars and restaurants, and sea front promenade passing the Princess Theatre toward Torquay’s flagship Torre Abbey Sands Beach and Torre Abbey meadow.

Torquay is nestled on the warm South Devon coast being one of three towns along with Paignton and Brixham which form the natural east facing harbour of Torbay, sheltered from the English Channel. Torbay’s wide selection of stunning beaches, picturesque coastline, mild climate and recreational facilities reinforce why it has rightfully earned the renowned nickname of the English Riviera.

Unparalleled panoramic sea and harbour views are encompassed from this Penthouse Apartment, which crowns one of Torquay’s most iconic buildings set in a prime position on Torquay’s harbourside. A secure lift takes you directly into the apartment, affording commodious living space of circa 3,000 sq ft, with an extensive wrap-around roof terrace spanning from the south-west to the north-east. The views are simply breathtaking, with the tranquil waters of the inner harbour, Strand, and clocktower in the foreground, to the wider sea of Tor Bay beyond and surrounding hillsides.
