3 bed maisonette for sale

Wellswood, Torquay TQ1

This spacious maisonette forms part of an established development set in the heart of leafy Wellswood, one of Torbay’s most exclusive districts. Approached through a private entrance door, the property presents the feeling of a town house, with deceptive three bedroom living space over the ground and first floor levels. All principal rooms face southwards with views over the beautiful landscaped communal gardens and over the surrounding wooded area to the sea at Tor Bay.

The amenities of Wellswood can be found within a short, virtually level walk which retain a 'village ambience' with local pub, highly regarded primary school, convenience store and delicatessen. Scenic walks can be enjoyed beyond through the wooded Ilsham Valley to picturesque Meadfoot Beach, continuing toward Torquay's bustling harbour, Yacht Marina and sea front promenade with Princess Theatre, Torre Abbey Sands Beach and Train Station at the far end.

EPC Rating: D

Owner's Insight

"We looked at many apartments before Hughenden Manor, and were slightly giving up hope before John Lake brought us to Hughenden Manor. When we walked into the living room, looked out over the garden to the bay, with the view improving as we went upstairs from the bedrooms, we immediately agreed to buy it and knew it was going to be our next home.

We are only moving to be near our family...wish we could take the property and views with us!"
