4 bedroom detached house for sale

Expansive views across Torquay to Dartmoor in the distance are just one attribute of this FINE DETACHED FAMILY HOUSE. Highview is set at the head of a peaceful no through road, deceptive in its initial appearance as arranged in a reverse level design to take full advantage of the panorama from the principal rooms and generous balcony. A loved home for our clients for seventeen years, the property is beautifully presented with private driveway parking and attractive gardens.

Rosehill Road stands on the fringe of the Warberries, and top of the hillside overlooking Ellacombe toward St Marychurch and Babbacombe. At the opposite end of the Warberries lies Wellswood, retaining a village ambience with well supported St Matthias Church, restaurants, pub, Post Office, Patisserie, and Ilsham Primary School. Both Warberry and Ellacombe Primary Schools are equally accessible.

OWNERS INSIGHT

"Over the last 17 years we have lovingly restored Highview into a family home. We have enjoyed its stunning hilltop views over Torquay and across to Dartmoor and the peace and tranquility of living next to Warberry Copse with no through traffic. Yet, the house is only a 10-minute walk into the town centre. We have added many features including two sunshine-filled decks, an extra en suite bathroom and an additional lounge. The beautiful colourful garden has been maintained to the highest standard along with internal decoration. Highview is much bigger than it looks from the outside and its true height and depth can only be appreciated from the rear. We hope whoever resides in it next enjoy it as much as we have."
