We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

The property also benefits from recently installed UPVC double glazing. The property is private and secluded, making it ideal as a home or investment.
This excellent home requires early inspection to fully appreciate the spacious and attractive accommodation on offer.

Steps lead up to your lovely garden that is low maintenance with patio and seating areas. The garden has pretty shrubbery and laid with white stone. There is useful underhouse storage and a shed.
From the top patio you have lovely views over Torquay. Steps take you to the property. As you enter, you will find a lovely sunroom that then takes you to your good-sized open plan kitchen/ lounge.
