4 bed detached house for sale

Centenary Way, Torquay TQ2

A spacious and well-proportioned detached family home, positioned within the lower part of the popular Willows development, just off Centenary Way and close to the Nicholson Road/Sainsbury’s roundabout. Built circa 2004 by Messrs Cavanna Homes, the property has the attractive double-fronted appearance associated with this style of executive home and occupies a generous plot with excellent parking, a detached double garage and enclosed rear gardens.

The property is offered with no onward chain and has been priced keenly to reflect that it would benefit from a degree of cosmetic updating. It is, however, a substantial and highly practical family house with excellent potential to become a superb long-term home.

The accommodation opens into a central hallway with access to the principal ground floor rooms. To the front is a useful study, ideal for home working, while the main lounge is a generous reception room with feature fireplace and direct access out to the rear garden. Double doors open through to a separate dining room, creating a flexible layout for family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and integrated appliances, with a separate utility area and ground floor WC adding further practicality.

To the first floor there are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, a further bedroom with en-suite and two additional bedrooms served by the family bathroom. The property also benefits from a large loft space which, subject to the necessary consents and building regulations, may offer further potential.

Overall, this is a sizeable detached home in a strong residential setting, offering excellent space, parking, garaging and future scope.
