EPC Rating: D Owners Insight "When we saw that a house in Egerton Road had come onto the market we couldn’t believe our luck.
We knew what a great place it was to live; close to Babbacombe and the town centre, yet still quiet enough to hear the birds singing from the park and nearby woods.
That was 18 years ago and, we can honestly say that we have loved every year of living in this house. It was to be our forever family home but, health issues have made it necessary to move on.
It’s now time for someone new to enjoy our home and make new memories." Step Inside A stepped approach rises to a front door opening to the reception hall with cupboard housing the gas boiler.
