Description

Nestled behind a spacious double entry driveway, this detached bungalow offers a fantastic opportunity for redevelopment in one of Torquay's most desirable areas. Just moments from the scenic Daddyhole Plain and the inviting Meadfoot Beach, this property presents a prime coastal investment with significant potential. Although currently well-preserved as a family residence, it provides a blank canvas that allows for remodeling or expansion, pending the necessary permissions. Notably, previous planning approval was secured to create four bedrooms on the upper level, complete with a balcony, transforming the existing layout for modern living (Torbay Council reference P/2018/0888). The exterior boasts ample parking and low-maintenance paved terraces, perfect for outdoor enjoyment. The location is ideal for leisure pursuits with water sports amenities nearby and beautiful woodland walks at Ilsham Valley. The local community offers diverse dining options and shopping experiences in Wellswood village. Additionally, Torquay’s vibrant harbour and marina are just down the hill. Internally, the home features an entry porch leading to an L-shaped reception hall with storage and loft access. The sitting room showcases character through its bay window and ornate fireplace. The kitchen/dining space benefits from natural light and garden views, equipped with modern fixtures. Each of the three bedrooms comfortably accommodates double beds, while outdoor spaces include stepped access to raised patio areas suitable for entertaining.
