Designed with modern comfort and sociability in mind, the open-plan kitchen and living area is bright and spacious.

The second bedroom is served by a shower room on this floor, providing extra comfort for guests or family members.
Outside, the property offers a charming, low-maintenance garden space, suitable for adding personal touches with potted plants or greenery. With its enviable location just steps away from the parade of shops on Reddenhill Road, and a short walk from the scenic Babbacombe Downs, residents can enjoy easy access to local amenities, dining, and stunning coastal walks. Babbacombe Downs, England's highest cliff-top promenade, offers a meandering descent to the beach or a ride on the historic Cliff Railway.
Council Tax Band: B (Torbay Council)
Tenure: Freehold
One of the standout features of this property is its rare freehold tenure, which is uncommon for a maisonette. As a freehold owner, you have complete control over the property without the burden of restrictive covenants typically imposed on leasehold properties. There is no service charge or ground rent.
The maisonette is equipped with electric storage heaters throughout. However, there is a gas supply to the property, requiring only the installation of a meter and a gas boiler. The ideal location for the boiler would be in the en-suite of bedroom one, where, according to the vendor, gas piping has already been conveniently positioned. The vendor has obtained an estimate for the gas supply installation, which is expected to cost between £4,000 and £5,000.
Additionally, the property has recently undergone significant improvements, including a full re-roofing, the installation of a new water main, updated plumbing, and modernised electrics. With these essential upgrades already completed, future maintenance costs are expected to be minimal, making this an exceptionally low-maintenance and cost-efficient home.
Entrance
The property benefits from its own private, gated front garden, offering a welcoming approach. A double-glazed entrance door provides access to the ground floor entrance hall, with a staircase leading to the first-floor landing. The landing includes a built-in storage cupboard that houses the water tank, providing practical storage.
Kitchen/living room
The open-plan kitchen and living room are spacious areas designed for modern living. The kitchen is equipped with integrated appliances, including a built-in oven, hob, washing machine, and fridge/freezer. A large double-glazed bay window at the front provides natural light and views of All Saints Church. This open layout creates a bright and welcoming space for relaxation and dining.
Bedroom one
Located on the first floor, the master bedroom is generously sized and includes a double-glazed bay window that overlooks All Saints Church. This room benefits from its own private four-piece en-suite bathroom with under-floor heating for added convenience. The en-suite bathroom features a bath tub with a centre mixer tap, a vanity unit with integrated wash basin and storage, a corner shower cubicle with an electric shower, and a WC. The bathroom features fully tiled walls and flooring, with wall mounted mirrors at either end of the room.
SECOND FLOOR - Landing
Accessed via a staircase from the open-plan living area, the second-floor study/snug area benefits from a Velux window, creating an ideal space for a home office or a quiet retreat.
Bedroom two
The second bedroom is located on the second floor, featuring a double-glazed window on one side and a Velux window on the other, allowing ample natural light. This room also includes eaves storage for added practicality.
Shower room
Completing the second floor is a three-piece shower room, which includes a shower cubicle with an electric shower, a pedestal wash basin, and a toilet, offering convenience for both residents and guests.
