2 bed Flat For Sale £245,000
Description Behind the private front door to this entrance level apartment lies a beautiful home, tastefully presented and commanding open views over the lawned communal gardens and surrounding area. The property benefits from an end garage with pitched roof for storage, whilst the development provides additional driveway parking, subject to availability.
Chelston View is a most desirable development enviably set in one of Torquay's prestigious locations betwixt Torquay's Sea Front and Cockington Country Park which covers circa 460 acres of woodland, lakes and meadows. Local 'village' shops at Walnut Road are just a short saunter away, whilst Torquay's Train Station is equally accessible, just one stop from the Main line Newton Abbot with direct links to most major cities.
Owners insight "We bought the apartment two years ago needing a lot of love and attention, and after a great deal of time, effort, and money, hopefully have created a modern home which can be enjoyed for many years to come. Our intention was to use it as a family holiday home, but we love Torquay so much we have decided to move down permanently for a change in lifestyle with our two young boys.
What's not to love about the location, it is amazing! We are literally a stick throw from the Cockinton Country Park, local shops around the corner, and Torquay's Train Station and beach close by. The garage and gardens were also a big attraction for us, and the neighbours are all lovely."
