This REVERSE LEVEL DETACHED PROPERTY is near the picturesque Brunel Woodland with open views over the rooftops towards Dartmoor in the distance. Tastefully presented, the bright and spacious accommodation overlooks the attractive gardens which are beautifully tended with summer house, herb garden, tropical area with pond, and an array of flowers and shrubs, whilst ample parking to the front leads with two driveways and a single garage.

Merrivale Closee stands on the periphery of Torquay, yet conveniently placed for access to 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.
