Read the full agent description

Set within one of Torquay’s most sought-after coastal settings, this beautifully refurbished, entry-level apartment delivers stylish single-level living with a genuine “turn-key” finish. The seller purchased the apartment in 2017 and has since gutted and comprehensively modernised it, creating a bright, exceptionally warm home with a high EPC rating and a notably sunny aspect – the very things that first drew her to it.

The apartment is approached via a well-kept communal entrance and opens into a spacious reception hall with a telephone entry system and a superb run of built-in storage cupboards. The heart of the home is the generous living/dining room where a large bay window and additional side window pull in plenty of natural light. A glazed door opens onto the enclosed private balcony, which has been upgraded and now features a sleek glass balustrade – an ideal spot for a morning coffee, a book, or an evening drink, with pleasant coastal views. The flooring is a real delight with an engineered oak herringbone which coats the apartment in luxury.

The kitchen has been finished to a high standard with quartz worktops, excellent storage and a premium appliance package including Neff induction hob and extractor, Neff Hide & Slide oven, Neff combi microwave, an integrated fridge/freezer, plus an InSinkErator. Practical touches include smartly planned storage, new sockets throughout, and integrated speakers (also in the bathroom) adding a polished, modern feel.

Both bedrooms are proper doubles. The principal bedroom enjoys a rear aspect with far-reaching views and full-height fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom provides additional built-in storage and side window sea glimpses. The shower room is equally impressive – a luxury suite with marble tiles, a generous walk-in shower, vanity unit with backlit mirror, WC and heated towel rail.

Outside, residents enjoy attractive landscaped communal gardens and a private outdoor swimming pool (typically open spring through to October, subject to seasonal scheduling). The apartment also benefits from a garage, with on-site parking available on a first come, first served basis.

No onward chain – the vendor is happy to move into rented accommodation for the right buyer.
