This FINE FOUR BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSE is enviably located, just a short saunter to the picturesque Babbacombe Downs with the popular St Marychurch 'village' precinct also within walking distance.
Property Oracle says ..
Babbacombe is a highly sought-after location in Torquay, known for its stunning coastal views and proximity to local amenities. The property is located within easy reach of several highly-rated schools including The Spires College and St Marychurch Church of England Primary and Nursery School, both of which received a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. The area also benefits from convenient access to transportation links, with several train stations located within a reasonable distance. The presence of these amenities contributes to a high quality of life and strong demand for properties in this area.
The property itself appears to be well-maintained and in good condition. The images showcase a modern kitchen and updated bathrooms, suggesting recent renovations or upgrades. There is evidence of a traditional style, however, modern updates are present. The property also benefits from several conservatories providing additional living space. The overall impression is one of a comfortable and well-presented home.
The property includes a sizeable garden, offering ample outdoor space for relaxation and recreation. The garden is well-landscaped and includes a patio area, greenhouse and various plants and shrubs. The presence of a garden is a significant advantage, particularly in a desirable residential area like Babbacombe.
Considering the property’s location in Babbacombe, its excellent condition, and the inclusion of a substantial garden, the list price of £900,000 appears to be in line with or potentially slightly above the average price per square foot in the area. While the average price per square foot in the area is £330, the unique features of this property, including its size, condition, and desirable location, could justify a higher price. However, a comparative market analysis of similar properties in the immediate vicinity would be beneficial to determine a more precise valuation. The lack of plot size information in the provided data makes a definitive statement on price difficult.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
