Description
Offered to the market chain free, this beautifully presented two-bedroom ground floor apartment forms part of the purpose-built extension to an elegant and well-maintained Victorian villa, set within the highly regarded Lincombes Conservation Area. The property enjoys the rare advantage of its own private entrance in addition to a communal entrance, and has been tastefully modernised and redecorated in a stylish, neutral palette to create a bright and welcoming home.
The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and comprises two bedrooms, a contemporary shower room, a fitted kitchen, and a spacious living/dining room, all finished to a high standard. A particular feature of the apartment is the excellent outside space, with two private courtyard gardens providing ideal areas for relaxing or entertaining. Further benefits include an allocated parking space as well as visitor parking.
Meadfoot Grange is surrounded by meticulously maintained communal gardens, mature trees and a wonderfully peaceful setting, giving the development an almost countryside feel while remaining close to the heart of Torquay. Ideally positioned just minutes from Meadfoot Beach and Torquay Marina, the property is also within easy reach of the harbourside's array of shops, waterfront restaurants and cafés. Torquay seafront, the Princess Theatre and The Little Theatre are also nearby, making this an exceptional home in one of the area's most sought-after coastal locations.

The Approach
The apartment benefits from dual access, with a private entrance via the front garden of Meadfoot Grange. It also has access from the rear through a communal entrance. This is where the allocated parking space is conveniently located. Approached from the front, the property is entered at ground floor level. Access from the apartment's communal entrance is via a staircase descending to the apartment’s internal front door. Once inside, the accommodation opens into a generously proportioned L-shaped reception hallway, finished with premium lvt flooring. This welcoming space also offers excellent practicality, with a cloak cupboard for coats and outdoor footwear, together with a further built-in storage cupboard that also provides space for a tumble dryer.
Living Room & Dining Room
Situated at the end of the hallway, the living room/dining room is a generously sized reception space. It is filled with natural light from the characterful floor-to-ceiling double-glazed bay window overlooking the apartment’s private front garden. The sitting area is centred around a bespoke media wall incorporating a sleek inset feature fire. This creates an attractive focal point with a contemporary finish. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, while the room is further enhanced by attractive herringbone-effect lvt flooring.
Kitchen
Accessed from the living room through twin glazed doors, the kitchen is fitted in a contemporary style and finished with luxury Karndean flooring. A comprehensive range of wall and base units is complemented by roll-edge work surfaces and tiled splashbacks, providing both practicality and a smart finish. Set beneath a double glazed window overlooking the apartment’s second private courtyard, the stainless steel sink and drainer enjoys a pleasant outlook. Integrated appliances include an eye-level oven, inset gas hob with concealed extractor above, under-counter fridge, under-counter freezer and dishwasher, while there is also space and plumbing for a washing machine.
Bedrooms & Shower Room
The apartment offers two well-presented bedrooms, with the principal bedroom being a particularly spacious double. This room benefits from built-in wardrobes, and a cleverly designed dressing area with integrated lighting. Finished with herringbone-style Karndean flooring, the bedroom also enjoys a double-glazed window overlooking one of the apartment’s private courtyard areas. The second bedroom is a comfortable small double, versatile in its uses and equally suited to guests, as a sofa bed arrangement, or as a study or hobby room. Serving the accommodation is a stylish modern shower room, fitted with a contemporary three-piece suite comprising a walk-in double width shower with tiled wall surround and fixed glass screen, a vanity unit with inset wash hand basin and storage beneath, and a concealed cistern WC. A wall-mounted mirrored cabinet and heated towel rail complete the room.
Outside Space To Enjoy
The apartment enjoys two private outdoor areas, providing excellent for relaxation and entertaining. To the front, an attractive and generously sized gravelled courtyard is enclosed by powder-coated steel fencing, creating a secure and pet-friendly environment. This area offers ample room for a table and chairs, making it ideal for sitting out in the sun from the late afternoon into the evening, while also lending itself well to container planting. To the rear, there is a further private patio which is partially covered. It is south facing and enjoys the sun until late afternoon, allowing for year-round enjoyment and providing a practical space for outdoor dining or entertaining. Designed with paving for ease of maintenance, it offers both privacy and convenience. In addition, residents of Meadfoot Grange also have the use of the well-maintained communal gardens. The property further benefits from allocated parking space number 5, together with visitor parking.
