Detached bungalow to rent in Blake Close, Torquay TQ1

This detached two bedroom bungalow occupies a private plot giving a high degree of seclusion having mature trees and greenery. Elevated from the bungalow the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped in order to provide an attractive, sunny and enjoyable but low maintenance outside space. The property Stands within the desirable residential location close to schools and the amenities at St Matychurch.

At the top of the hill lies the comprehensive amenities of St Marychurch with wide choice of shops and eateries, whilst the scenic Babbacombe Downs with shingle beaches below are equally accessible. A host of schools are within a short walk, with Priory and St Margarets Primary's on the door step. Numerous leisure and sports clubs are close at hand, with Babbacombe Corinthian Sailing Club at the base of the pedestrian precinct, and Torquay Golf Club virtually a tee shot away.

Regret no smokers. A single dog would be considered but the rent would increase to £995 pcm should this be agreed upon.
