Owners Insight

"We moved to Treetops in 2019 and have absolutely loved everything about living here! This would have been our forever home, but life has taken us in a new direction and we are now moving out of the area! Before moving to Treetops, we were living in Newton Abbot and were nervous about the move to Torquay as we did not know the area well, but it was the best thing we could have done! The location is fantastic - everything is on our doorstep – shops, supermarkets, parks, the beach, primary and secondary schools, main roads to Paignton and Newton Abbot – but at the same time the house is tucked away in a really private cul-de-sac benefitting from peace, quiet and calm! The house itself is great and has huge potential with planning permission granted for an extension! The garden is lovely and private and has been a great space for us and the kids over this last 6 years. And the neighbours are brilliant – it has been a real pleasure to live on Valley View Close."
