Enviably positioned in the very heart of the English Riviera on Torquay's waterfront, this coastal maisonette forms part of a character Grade II listed development. The apartment is beautifully presented and is arranged over two floors from a first-floor position. It benefits from a private courtyard and has recently been decorated throughout.
A selection of waterside restaurants, bars, the Princess Theatre, and a comprehensive range of shops are all on the doorstep. Meanwhile, the harborside and wider areas around Torbay are havens for water-based activities, including fishing, sailing, paddleboarding, and scuba diving. Exceptional mooring facilities are located within a few minutes' walk at Torquay's MDL Marina, and the scenic beaches of Meadfoot and Torre Abbey Sands can be found in either direction.
From the secure communal entrance, steps rise to a private front door opening to the reception hall, which includes a two-way video entry system, tiled floor, and period panelling to the walls. The cloakroom is equipped with a WC and wash hand basin. The sitting room has a dual aspect, with two windows and multi-glazed doors opening to the private courtyard garden. The room features lofty ceiling height, period panelling to the walls, and a feature fireplace with a Dimplex Opti-myst electric stove. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cream, high-gloss fronted units and granite-effect worktops with an inset sink. It includes a built-in double oven, a four-ring gas hob with extractor fan above, an integrated dishwasher, a washer/dryer, and a fridge/freezer. The floor is tiled, and there is a window.
From the reception hall, stairs rise to the first-floor landing with a window over the half landing and a skylight to the main landing. There is an airing cupboard housing the gas-fired boiler, which is controlled by a wireless Tado system. Bedroom 1 is a sizeable double room with built-in wardrobes and a window to the side. The en-suite includes a Jacuzzi bath with a shower over, a wash hand basin, and a WC. Bedroom 2 has a fitted double wardrobe and double doors leading out to the fire escape. Bedroom 3 includes a fitted double wardrobe and a window overlooking the courtyard garden. The shower room is beautifully appointed with a large shower cubicle, wash hand basin, WC, and skylight. There is period panelling to the walls.
Stepping outside, accessed from the sitting room and directly outside is a private courtyard garden with a raised display wall ideal for plants and shrubs. It is enclosed by a high stone wall boundary, making it ideal for pet owners.
The current owners said: "When I was looking for a property, by chance I came across Royal Marina Court in Torquay, which offered me a beautiful 3-bed, 2-bath apartment of the highest quality opposite the Marina with permit parking through Torbay Council just across the road on an annual charge.
