Property description
Situation
Set amongst its seven green hills, nine beaches, palm lined promenades and lively harbour side it's no surprise that Torquay is known as the Queen of the English Riviera. With spectacular views across Tor Bay and a townscape more reminiscent of Monaco it is easy to imagine oneself living in the south of France rather than South Devon.
Whilst Torquay owes much of its fame and history to its success as a Victorian resort, it hasn't stood still and today it has transformed itself and boasts a deep water marina alongside the harbour, where pavement cafés and boutique shops abound, along with a wide range of top class restaurants. Further afield the regional capital of Exeter ( approx. 30 minutes by train ) provides all of the big brand shopping and dining experiences that one could wish for. Exeter's International Airport offers a wide variety of business and leisure destinations with Europe and beyond.
Royal Pines is an exclusive development set within a peaceful residential environment at the end of Hesketh Road, and within a short stroll (400 feet) of Meadfoot Beach and has woodland walks and footpaths a plenty on your doorstep.
Description
Set in beautifully landscaped communal grounds that extend to 1.5 Acres and purpose built in the 1980s, Royal Pines is an exclusive development which enjoys panoramic views across the bay and Thatchers Rock. A private pillared entrance opens into the car park with space for visitors motor vehicles and residents' garaging area. Steps lead down from the car park into the perfectly manicured gardens which immediately offer up stunning views across the Bay to Brixham and Berry Head and to the left hand side Thatchers rock. Paths lead around the gardens so that you can take advantage of the breathtaking views from every aspect.
Forming part of an established purpose built development the apartment is situated on the second floor. The accommodation has three double bedrooms, en suite shower room, bathroom and lounge opening to a kitchen and dining room. With a south facing aspect the views overlook the gardens and through the pine trees across Tor Bay to Brixham and the surrounding coastline. Single garage.
Accommodation
Approached by either the lift or staircase from the communal reception area, where an entry phone system is in place for each individual apartment, this fabulous apartment is arranged on one level. On entry you are greeted by a warm entrance hall. Turning left to arrive in the sitting room with its full height windows capturing an abundance of natural light and obviously the stunning views. The windows allow access to the balcony area, again taking advantage of the spectacular views over the communal gardens and out across the Bay. Off the sitting room is the dining area which again has a window taking in the breathtaking views. The main reception accommodation of this apartment is open plan which takes advantage of the superb outlook.
The kitchen has been designed to make the most of the space and a full range of wall and floor mounted cupboards provide plenty of storage and working surfaces. Stainless steel sink unit with drainer, built in eye level oven and grill with hob to the side, free standing fridge and washing machine, integrated freezer.
