"EXCELLENT SEA VIEWS, BEAUTIFULLY TENDED GARDENS and a GENEROUS SOUTHERLY FACING PLOT makes this MATURE DETACHED RESIDENCE an exceptional family home. Our client has tastefully maintained Dawn Coppice over their many years of ownership and taken great care in retaining the charm of the 1930's era, even re-instating the original stained glass rose leaded windows into new wooden framed double glazed units to the principle rooms at a great expense. Dawn Coppice stands in an enviable location in the Lincombes, one of Torbay's most desirable residential areas. The popular Wellswood Village is positioned at the base of the hill with local shops, restaurants and the highly regarded Schools of Ilsham Primary and Stoodley Knowle private School for girls.
