Apartment on wooded slopes of the Warberries

This spacious, newly renovated two-bedroom apartment forms part of an established, purpose-built development, set on the desirable wooded slopes of the Warberries. It boasts beautiful sea views towards Tor Bay and the stretching coastline around to Brixham and Berry Head. It has a due south-facing balcony overlooking the communal gardens, and a garage providing secure parking or excellent storage space.

The Warberries hillside stands above Torquay's vibrant harbour and town, providing an array of shops, bars, restaurants, and leisure activities. Wellswood, with its village ambience, is equally accessible at the opposite end of Middle Warberry Road, where St Matthias Church, a delicatessen, The Kents pub, Coop, chemist, and post office can be found.

From the car park, six steps descend to the secure communal entrance, from where a lift or stairs rise by one floor, leading to a private entrance door. This opens to the reception hall, which includes a secure intercom system.

There is a cloaks cupboard, a further deep storage cupboard housing the electric meter and consumer units, and an airing cupboard with a hot water tank. The cloakroom includes a WC, a vanity unit, and an obscure glazed window.

The sitting room features a modern wall-mounted electric fire, large windows, and two doors opening to the balcony, which enjoys beautiful views over the communal gardens to the sea at Tor Bay, with Brixham and Berry Head in the distance. An archway leads to the dining room, which has a window to the rear.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of white high-gloss fronted units and wood-effect worktops with an inset sink unit. It includes a built-in electric double oven, a ceramic hob with extractor hood over, an integrated washing machine, and a fridge/freezer. The kitchen also features wood-effect flooring and a large window to the rear.

Bedroom 1 has windows covering the full width of the room, allowing panoramic views over the surrounding area, with wide sea and coastal views into Tor Bay, following the coastline around to Brixham and Berry Head. Bedroom 2 also has large windows, which offer similar sea and coastal views. The shower room features a suite with a corner shower cubicle, a wash hand basin set in a vanity unit, and a WC with a concealed cistern. The shower room is tiled, with a ladder-style heated towel rail, storage, wood-effect flooring, and an obscure glazed window.

This apartment benefits from a private garage, No. 13, which has an up-and-over door and lighting. There are also six visitor parking bays. The communal gardens are beautifully maintained and mainly laid to lawn, with an abundance of mature plants, trees, and shrubs for the enjoyment of all residents.

The length of lease is 999 years from September 1960. The service charge is £2,790.83 per annum and includes ground rent.
