Property Oracle says ..
Villa St Christopher is an elegant detached Victorian residence located in Meadfoot, Torquay. The property boasts 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, spanning 3,244.24 sqft and situated on a 3,164.59 sqft plot. Its location in Meadfoot places it in a highly desirable area of Torquay, known for its exclusive setting on the South Devon Coast. The proximity to Meadfoot Beach and the South West coastal footpath adds to its appeal. Several good schools are within a reasonable distance, enhancing its family-friendliness. The train station is also relatively close by.
The property appears to be well-maintained, although some interior features, such as the wallpaper and carpets, might benefit from modernisation. The garden is a significant feature, offering ample outdoor space. While the property’s age contributes to its character, potential buyers should factor in the costs associated with potential renovations to bring it up to modern standards.
Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £282, and the property’s size and location, the list price of £950,000 seems within the range of comparable properties in the area, although at the higher end. The property’s size, features, and desirable location justify a premium compared to the area average. However, a thorough survey is recommended to assess any potential structural issues or necessary repairs before finalizing the purchase.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
