This CHARMING 2 BEDROOM PERIOD COTTAGE stands just a pebbles throw from the picturesque Babbacombe Downs which overlooks Lyme Bay with shingle beaches below.
Property Oracle says ..
The property is a two-bedroom terraced house located on Princes Street in Babbacombe, Torquay. It benefits from a relatively small enclosed rear garden with decking. The property’s proximity to Babbacombe Downs offers scenic coastal walks and views. All Saints Babbacombe Cofe Primary School is within a short distance, approximately 0.52km. Several other schools are also within a reasonable distance, making it potentially attractive to families. The location also offers convenient access to local shops and transportation links, although specific details on the proximity of shops are not provided. The train station is approximately 3.6km away.
Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior shows recently updated flooring and a modern bathroom. The kitchen is functional but could benefit from some modernisation. There is no visible evidence of significant repairs or renovations required.
The property’s plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, which is unusual and likely an error. While there is a small garden, the actual size is unclear from the provided information. The small size of the garden and lack of precise plot size measurement needs to be considered.
Considering the list price of £250,000, the average price in the area of £300,134, and the average price per sqft of £330, this property appears to be priced competitively. The property is smaller than the average size for the area (649.06 sqft vs 909 sqft), but the lower price per sqft may reflect this difference. The condition of the property and its location near amenities and scenic areas could justify the price, even considering its relatively modest size and small garden. However, further information on the actual plot size would be beneficial for a more comprehensive analysis.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
