St Marychurch, Torquay, TQ1 4QA

Positioned on the doorstep of St Marychurch precinct, this CHAIN FREE ONE BEDROOM GROUND FLOOR APARTMENT with PRIVATE FRONT AND REAR ACCESS is ready to move straight into. The sitting room, kitchen and bathroom sit together on a single floor, with a double bedroom completing the layout. The kitchen appliances are included, gas central heating runs throughout, and a recent EICR is in place, so the practical groundwork is already done. A resident’s parking permit and a visitor’s permit for the residents’ car park off Petitor Mews take the daily search for a space out of the equation. A sound first home or a straightforward addition to a rental portfolio. St Marychurch precinct is right on your doorstep, with its independent shops, cafes and bakeries gathered around the old Town Hall clock tower, and local schools are within easy reach. Babbacombe Downs and its sweeping views across the bay are a short walk away, with the cliff railway down to Oddicombe Beach, while Watcombe Park and the paths towards Petitor offer lovely walks close to home. Regular bus services run through St Marychurch to Torquay town centre and the railway station.
