Stylishly Renovated Two-Bedroom Apartment in the Heart of Shiphay with Panoramic Views

Perfectly positioned in the heart of the popular Shiphay residential area, this two-bedroom second-floor apartment has undergone a comprehensive program of renovation. The result is a sleek, contemporary, and incredibly bright home that is ready for immediate occupation. Located just a short stroll from local amenities including the Co-op, various independent shops, well regarded primary school and within walking distance Torbay Hospital, this property is ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or those looking for a high-quality investment.

The property is accessed via a well-maintained communal hallway and stairs. Upon entering the apartment, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home. A notable feature is the large, walk-in store room, providing essential space for household items and keeping the living areas clutter-free.

The living and dining room is the social heart of the apartment. Recently re-carpeted and decorated in neutral tones, it feels both spacious and cosy, centered around a modern electric fireplace. Large windows flood the room with natural light and frame far-reaching views across the Torquay skyline. From here, a door leads out onto a private balcony—a wonderful spot to enjoy the elevated position and the panoramic scenery of the surrounding area.

Directly off the living area, the kitchen has been thoughtfully re-fitted to a high standard. It boasts a range of contemporary high-gloss units paired with generous worktop space and a large rear-aspect window. Practicality is key here, with an integrated electric hob, stainless steel sink and drainer, and plumbing for a washing machine, all finished with a modern aesthetic.

The accommodation continues through an inner hallway leading to two well-proportioned double bedrooms, there is also loft access here. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, enjoying a front-facing aspect with plenty of room for a king-sized bed and additional storage. The second bedroom is equally versatile, currently offering ample space for a double bed and wardrobes.

The renovation is perhaps most evident in the boutique-style shower room. This stylish space features a large double shower with a glass screen and a luxurious rain-shower head. It is further enhanced by an integrated vanity unit with a washbasin and WC, complemented by clever storage cabinets and a large mirror above. With a ladder towel radiator, full tiling to the walls and floor, and recessed downlights, it offers a truly high-end feel.
