This fine detached bungalow is set in a peaceful road on the fringe of Torquay
with attractive gardens, driveway parking, and garage. The accommodation has
been extended to provide an additional linked room leading from the rear
bedroom, ideally suited as a dressing room or study, and potential to create
an ensuite. The bungalow is tastefully presented, although priced to reflect a
degree of modernisation which would now be beneficial.
The bungalow stands on the outskirts of Torquay, yet conveniently placed for
access to local shops at Barton and the 'village' amenities at St Marychurch
where Torquay Golf Club can be found. The pretty Watcombe Cove lies at the
base of the wooded hillside by crossing the nearby Teignmouth Road where the
South Devon Coastal Footpaths can be joined toward Shaldon and Teignmouth to
the north or Torquay and wider Torbay to the South.

**Seller's Insight**
"Our Dad reluctantly made the move down from London to be closer to us, and
after initial reservations that Devon was a different world, he realised it
was actually a beautiful place to live! Dad enjoyed five happy years at the
bungalow, and it was perfect with his ailing health with one level living, and
level gardens. It's a very peaceful road, although only a matter of minutes to
shops or beautiful walks. "
