INTRODUCTION
Thatcher Heights is an exclusive gated development of just eight houses situated within one of Torquay's finest locations. Number 2 offers beautifully appointed accommodation which has been significantly enhanced in recent years. The property is set over three floors with panoramic views across Torbay enjoyed from the ground floor and first floor levels.

The ground floor level provides a pleasant 'open plan' living area with an engineer light oak flooring and fabulous views. This reception provides direct access into a high quality, bespoke kitchen and there is room for a breakfast table and chairs. Also on this level is a cloakroom/wc. To the first floor, there are four bedrooms comprising three doubles and one single room, but unquestionably the stand out room is the master bedroom suite. The master bedroom suite provides en suite facilities and a balcony with the most breathtaking views across Torbay. There is also a modern fully tiled family bathroom suite. The lower ground floor offers a utility room and cavernous double garage with ample space for a multi gym fitness suite, bikes and various boating/water equipment (eg surfboards, paddleboards, hard rib etc).

Outside of the double garage is private driveway parking for a single car and steps lead up to a level sun terrace providing panoramic bay views. To the first floor level and accessed from the main bedroom is a large balcony enjoying wonderful views out to Thatcher Rock and beyond. To the rear is a narrow paved section of garden where gas and electric meters are located.

This really is a house that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated, particularly with some of the finest views you will find in South Devon. If you are seeking a waterside lifestyle with sheltered beaches and boating opportunities, then Torbay and Thatcher Heights provide the perfect location.

STEP INSIDE
From the main entrance hallway, several rooms radiate off it. There is a cloakroom/wc, access up to the first floor via a feature curved staircase and a door leading into the living room and dining room. This is a light and spacious 'open plan room' with a light oak floor throughout both rooms. Doors also open out onto the front sun terrace which affords fabulous bay views. The kitchen offers a comprehensive range of modern base level and wall mounted units with integrated appliances and a stylish light Corian work top. Again, there are views out to the bay to the front of this room and tilt and slide patio doors head out to a small rear section of paved garden. From the kitchen, stairs lead down to the lower ground floor level which provides a utility area and large double garage with gym area to the side.

A feature curved staircase winds its way up to a stylishly wallpapered landing with a large roof light, airing cupboard and access to the loft space. First floor accommodation provides four bedrooms, a modern family bathroom suite and an en suite shower room to the master bedroom. Both bathrooms provide high quality modern suites with fully tiled rooms. From the master bedroom, there is access to a large balcony with panoramic views that really must be seen to be appreciated.

STEP OUTSIDE
Number 2 affords easy to maintain outside spaces with the main areas situated to the front of the property, facing a southerly direction and making the most of the fabulous views. There is a level, tiled sun terrace to the ground floor level leading into the main living room and there is a large balcony to the first floor level affording even finer views across the bay towards Brixham, Paignton and Livermead.

To the rear of the house is a narrow strip of paved garden providing useful storage. The meters are situated here and the wall marks the boundary with maintenance of the land above covered under the costs of the management company. Similarly, the land to the front of the development leading down to Ilsham Marine Drive is looked after and maintained by the management company. Works undertaken include the trimming of trees and bushes and cutting of grass. There is outside lighting and an electric gate into the development with costs covering upkeep divided equally between the houses in Thatcher Heights.

LOCATION
Thatcher Heights is situated in one of the bay's most salubrious areas. From the beach at Meadfoot and tree lined Ilsham Valley, Ilsham Marine Drive provides access to Thatcher Avenue and in turn the gated development of Thatcher Heights. With just eight houses in the development, Number 6 is situated towards the far end of the road, providing outstanding views over the bay.
