About this property
Utter perfection. This beautifully renovated sea view apartment perches in a prime location high above the bay and offers couples a dreamy retreat for weekend getaways or long, luxurious holidays on the English Riviera. Designed to make the most of its extraordinary position, the apartment’s living room boasts three seating areas, each with its own sea views through glass sliding doors and a large picture window at its centre. Contemporary sofas invite guests to ease back in comfort, while a pair of Scandi style upholstered Beechwood armchairs create an unrivalled vantage point for enjoying a morning coffee or sundowners.
Tactile soft furnishings, potted palms and pieces of art in the living room juxtapose the minimalist white colour scheme and gloss marble floor. Sleek units, granite worktops and industrial light fittings in the kitchen feel high-end and bespoke. The kitchen’s central island doubles as a dining area for sharing everything from breakfasts to suppers and also makes an excellent spot for savouring a glass of bubbly or home crafted cocktails. The master bedroom is sumptuous and airy with crisp linen adorning an enormous bed, and the property's fabulous bathroom comes complete with a freestanding ultra-deep bathtub and spacious walk-in shower.
Famed for its palm-tree lined seafront and idyllic marina, Torquay is one of the three towns that make up Torbay and is within easy reach of all of the area’s best beaches and attractions. Towns like Brixham and Dartmouth are within just a short drive away as is the rugged beauty of tor-strewn Dartmoor. Torquay abounds with good places to eat including Michelin star The Elephant which is just fifteen minutes’ walk from the property, and Pier Point for a lazy lunch with marina and promenade views. There are gardens to stroll through at Torre Abbey, and woodland walks to explore at nearby Cockington Country Park, which is also a great spot for a Devon cream tea.
