House For Sale £370,000
Description This fine detached bungalow is enviably set in a peaceful cul-de-sac above the picturesque Brunel Woodland, backing onto open fields toward Maidencombe behind. A loved home for our clients nearly 39 years, the property has been a loved home, although priced to reflect a degree of modernisation which would now be beneficial. The living space connects to the attractive gardens, with access into the fields behind, a particular attraction to dog owners and a haven for wildlife.
Seymour Drive stands on the outskirts 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 "Kismet has been our home now for nearly 39 years, and its taken us a long time to reach the decision to downsize. We love so much about the bungalow, although we think it will be the garden we miss the most, having so much privacy and seclusion.
Beautiful walks on our doorstep has been a big advantage, with access straight into the Brunel Woods opposite and fields behind. For a dog owner the location is absolutely perfect."
