3 bed terraced house for sale

Marcombe Road, Torquay TQ2

Positioned in the sought-after area of Higher Chelston, this beautifully presented late Victorian terraced house has been cherished by the same family for over four decades. Set across three generous levels, the property combines character features with modern improvements, offering versatile accommodation and an inviting atmosphere throughout.

The ground floor opens with a spacious reception hallway, where a handsome wooden staircase rises to all levels. To the front, a bay-fronted lounge with ornate coving and a feature fireplace provides a bright and welcoming living space. A second reception room sits alongside, equally light and airy, with a fireplace of its own – ideal as a snug, playroom, or even an additional bedroom if required.

On the garden level, the home continues to impress with a formal dining room featuring another fireplace, leading directly into a large, modern kitchen extension. This triple-aspect room enjoys an open outlook over Chelston and provides plenty of space for family dining, complete with integrated appliances and a breakfast area. A side door opens onto a low-maintenance garden, perfect for summer barbecues, with gated access to a rear lane. A shower room is also located on this level, along with a substantial under-house store currently arranged as a utility area with ample storage capacity.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts two beautifully appointed double bedrooms, the principal with a bay-fronted window, along with a single bedroom that could be converted into a bathroom if desired. A separate WC and access to a large loft complete the accommodation.

The property benefits from double glazing and central heating throughout, and on-street parking is readily available.

This is a superb family home – immaculately cared for, spacious, and full of character – situated in a desirable part of Torquay close to excellent local amenities and schools
