2 bed Flat For Sale £275,000
Description Set at the head of a peaceful cul-de-sac in the highly regarded Meadfoot area, this spacious two double bedroom apartment is situated to the ground floor of this purpose built development and offers spacious well-presented accommodation enjoying southerly sea views into Torbay complimented by the lovely lawned communal gardens in the foreground. A paved terrace accessed from the principle room provides a bright and sunny private outside seating space from where to enjoy these beautiful views.
'Royal Pines' is enviably positioned close to Meadfoot Beach, being a haven for water sports, including kayaking, scuba diving, fishing and sailing. A host of amenities are also easily accessible nearby with Wellswood village providing bistro restaurants, pub and parade of local shops, whilst Torquay's harbourside lies within a few miles' distance with deep water mooring facilities, waterside bars and restaurants and the Princess Theatre.
Agents insight "The apartment has been a very happy home for the late owner, who we had the pleasure of meeting, for the last 20 years. He even left us a note advising that in his own words he "…would still be living there if I hadn't inconveniently died recently"!
The setting of Royal Pines is ideal for those that wish to enjoy the benefits of the English Riviera, with Daddyhole Plain and Meadfoot Beach being just a short stroll and from there the South West coastal path allows picturesque walks through the bay enabling the appreciation of the beautiful scenery."
