2 bedroom semi-detached bungalow for sale

This UNIQUE BUNGALOW is positioned in the heart of Wellswood, one of Torquay's most exclusive districts. The property has been comprehensively renovated within our client’s ownership, presented to a high standard throughout and benefitting from a private courtyard approach which can be utilised as either recreational space or parking.

Kents Lane is enviably positioned within a stone’s throw from the amenities at Wellswood which has retained a village ambiance boasting a parade of independent shops, including a pastisserie, post office, delicatessen, bistro restaurant and Kents Pub. There is also the well supported St Matthias Church and the highly regarded Ilsham Primary School equally close at hand. A scenic walk through the wooded Ilsham Valley leads to Meadfoot Beach, whilst Torquay’s bustling harbour is approximately one mile distance.

OWNER'S INSIGHT

"The location is perfect for anyone wanting to be close to the village shops, just one road back. It is a fairly quiet lane, and many of the neighbouring properties have also been renovated or developed over recent years which has positively lifted the street scene. I have owned the property for eight years, and enjoyed comprehensively renovating. 21 has been used privately, holiday rental, and more latterly a rental investment on assured shorthold tenancy, but with the end of the most recent tenancy, it seems an appropriate time to sell."
