This FINE SEMI DETACHED BUNGALOW is enviably set in a peaceful cul de sac commanding OPEN VIEWS across Torquay stretching from its elevated position on Great Hill, taking in Torquay Golf Course, Easterfield, to the sea at Tor Bay, and around toward Dartmoor. The accommodation affords a larger three bedroom design, complemented externally by driveway parking for three cars and a single garage to the front, and generous rear garden with gateway opening to Great Hill and the old reservoir. The bungalow has been a loved home for our client s family since 2007, beautifully maintained, although priced to reflect a degree of modernisation which would now be beneficial.

Barradon Close 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.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"Our parents loved their bungalow, and would never have moved. More recently when our mum was not very mobile, she just loved sitting by the window and watching the word go by and the ever changing weather over the bay. The garden was their pride and joy, always immaculate and dad had a very productive vegetable patch. It really has been a loved home, and we hope new owners can enjoy similar longevity and lasting memories to our family."
