Owner Insight

"This apartment will always hold a special place in my heart, not only was it a very happy home for me, it was also where my husband and I met, with him owning the neighbouring apartment.

When I was looking for a home I stumbled upon Cleve Court, set in a quiet yet convenient location just around the corner from the shopping parade in Wellswod and also easily accessible to lovely walks through the Ilsham Valley to Meadfoot Beach. As I didn’t drive at the time the regular bus service on nearby Babbacombe Road made it absolutely ideal.

I found the apartment to be such a lovely, comfortable home that when it was time for me to move on I could not bring myself to sell it, so I let it for a number of years to a tenant who enjoyed living here as much as I did. It is with a heavy heart that I now feel that the time is right for me to sell the apartment and I only hope that any new owner will enjoy living here as much as I have done!"
