Apartment 43 has been owned by the same family since the development was first built, having originally been purchased off-plan. It has clearly been a much-loved home, chosen for what remains a rather special combination of space, outlook and position within the development.
Situated within the final section of Meadwood on the seaward side, the apartment occupies the top floor and is conveniently served by lift access, making its elevated position and impressive outlook easily accessible. Extending to almost 1,000 sq ft. Three-bedroom apartments of this size are increasingly difficult to find locally, particularly when combined with a garage, balcony and such an impressive coastal outlook.
The accommodation is approached through a secure communal entrance with keypad access and opens into a notably spacious private hallway. A large cloakroom/storage cupboard provides excellent practical storage, while a skylight introduces additional natural light into the centre of the apartment.
There are three genuine double bedrooms. One enjoys fitted wardrobes together with access onto the substantial south-facing balcony, creating an excellent space from which to sit out and enjoy the surroundings. A second double bedroom benefits from its own generously proportioned en-suite shower room, while the third provides another comfortable double bedroom suitable for guests, family or a home office if required.
The main living space is a particularly impressive feature. The generous lounge and dining room provides plenty of room for both seating and a full dining area, with large windows drawing attention towards the exceptional outlook across Hesketh Crescent, the surrounding coastline, Thatcher Rock and the sea beyond.
The kitchen is open to the living area and offers an excellent amount of fitted storage and workspace, together with the additional natural light provided by a skylight.
A further shower room is positioned off the hallway, giving the apartment two separate shower facilities and adding to its practicality for visiting family and guests.
The apartment would now benefit from modernisation throughout and the asking price has been positioned accordingly. For the next owner, however, this represents an excellent opportunity to update the accommodation entirely to their own taste without compromising on the things that cannot easily be changed - the size, top-floor position, south-facing aspect, garage and exceptional Meadfoot location.
After many years in the same ownership, Apartment 43 is now ready for its next chapter and offers considerable potential to create an outstanding coastal home.
Location
Meadwood occupies a superb position within Meadfoot, one of Torquay's most desirable coastal areas, combining easy access to the coast with the greenery and established character of the Wellswood and Ilsham area.
Meadfoot Beach lies close by and is one of Torquay's most recognised coastal settings, with views towards Thatcher Rock and across Tor Bay. The South West Coast Path also follows this section of coastline, providing excellent opportunities for walking directly from the area.
Ilsham Valley is also nearby, providing a broad green open space running towards the coast, while Wellswood village offers a strong selection of independent shops and everyday amenities. The wider Wellswood and Torwood area is particularly notable for its mature woodland, open spaces and distinctive coastal setting.
Torquay Harbour is approximately a mile from Meadfoot Beach, placing restaurants, cafés, the marina and Torquay's waterfront within easy reach while allowing Meadwood to retain a quieter residential atmosphere away from the centre of the town.
For buyers looking specifically at Meadfoot, the attraction is easy to understand: Coastline, green space and established residential surroundings all sit within a relatively compact area, while Apartment 43 adds the significant advantage of an elevated position with views over Hesketh Crescent towards the sea and Thatcher Rock.
Garden
A particular advantage of the apartment is its south-facing balcony, providing valuable private outside space and an attractive place to enjoy the sunshine and surroundings.
Meadwood itself sits within extensive, mature communal grounds which are beautifully maintained and form an important part of the appeal of the development. Residents also benefit from parking within the grounds and secure keypad-controlled access to the building.
Apartment 43 additionally has its own private garage, conveniently positioned close to the exit of the development - a particularly useful feature in this part of Meadfoot.
