Property of the Week is Hill View Lodge in Lydwell Road, Torquay - a unique, architect-designed, four-bedroom, detached residence offering more than 260m2 of accommodation.

Finished to a high specification, with a sunken swimming pool, ample off-road parking and fabulous sea and coastal views, Hill View Lodge has been recently constructed and offers a fantastic contemporary home, ideal for entertaining and relaxing.

The architect has cleverly designed the reverse-level living to encompass fabulous sea and coastal views enjoyed from the rear elevation and the internal accommodation offers spacious and flexible living.

Along with high levels of insulation are roof-mounted solar panels that help towards a more economical home.

From the driveway, the property is accessed via a footbridge that leads to the first floor, where you are welcomed by the stunning sea and coastal views.

There is a cloakroom/WC, a beautiful high-end kitchen with integrated appliances and a spacious lounge/dining room with a vaulted-style ceiling and galleried area looking down to the family room and bespoke bar area.

Also on this level is the master bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a luxury en-suite bathroom/WC.

From the open-plan reception hallway is an oak staircase with glass balustrade that leads to the ground floor reception hallway and second cloakroom/WC.

There are also three further double bedrooms, with the guest bedroom having en-suite facilities and another luxury family bathroom/WC.

There is an impressive family room with a fitted bespoke bar area and bi-folding doors allowing inside/outside living.

Hill View Lodge benefits from an air source heat pump and underfloor heating on the ground floor.

The property is approached via automated gates that lead to a spacious, bonded gravel driveway offering ample off-road parking and leads to a larger than average detached garage with electric up-and-over door.

The rear garden has been superbly landscaped and offers a fantastic sunken swimming pool and two spacious patio areas which are part covered, ideal for alfresco dining.

The majority of the gardens are laid to lawn and enclosed by timber fencing.
