Description
The Lodge is a hidden gem in the heart of Babbacombe, an attached TOWN HOUSE tucked away behind the period villa which has been sympathetically converted into select apartments. Extended circa 1960, this deceptively spacious property affords three double bedrooms with principal en suite cloakroom, and the sitting room opening to the private garden, mainly laid to lawn and raised decked terrace.
Westholme is enviably positioned close to Cary Parks and a short level saunter to the local tennis and bowls clubs. A host of amenities can be found nearby at both St Marychurch and Babbacombe including shops, Churches, and medical practices, with the scenic Babbacombe Downs set above the shingle beaches of Oddicombe & Babbacombe also close by.
