Situation

This wonderful family home is located on an ever popular road in the Wellswood area of Torquay. Torquay began its rise as a resort for the well-to-do when the fleet of the Royal Navy used Tor Bay as an anchorage during the Napoleonic Wars. It became fashionable for naval officers and their families during the first half of the 19th century. This prompted the building of many large and fashionable villas as well as exclusive hotels as Torquay aimed at the higher end of the market. This holiday trade was given a special boost after the railway arrived in 1848. Wellswood is an area of Torquay developed with exclusive villas for the well-to-do during the 19th century.

Accommodation

This character Edwardian end of terrace house offers a comfortable way of life for its residents with many original features including windows and detailed cornice works. A ground floor extension creates the right balance of reception space verses bedroom accommodation. The ground floor is entered through a stable door into the kitchen. This fabulous room, which is a kitchen come breakfast room, also has enough space to accommodate a quiet reading area or children's play corner. There is the usual range of well fitted wall and floor units and a handy utility area just off the kitchen to house the washing machine etcetera. There is also a cloak room.

There are three reception rooms. A drawing room at the front of the property, which is a tranquil room with a feature fireplace and an abundance of natural light. The formal dining room is at the heart of the house and has a many potential uses. The front door leads into this room through a vestibule, a perfect place for coats and boots.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a fabulous family bathroom with separate shower room. We understand it would be possible to convert the loft to additional bedroom accommodation, subject to the necessary constraints. An early viewing of this wonderful house is highly recommended.
