This top floor apartment occupies a bright westerly corner position within an established development in one of Torquay’s most exclusive locations. Approached via lift and stair access, the property affords a generous two double bedroom design, with all principal rooms commanding attractive views over the beautiful communal garden and surrounding area. The apartment holds added advantages of an undercover allocated parking space, private lockage store, and use of the attractive gardens.

Palermo is enviably positioned just a saunter from the local amenities of Wellswood which have retained a ‘village’ ambiance. The comprehensive amenities include a selection of shops with Co-op, Post Office, pub, chemist, patisserie, optician, and well supported St Matthias Church. Following Ilsham Road down through the picturesque Ilsham Valley you reach Meadfoot Beach, and the coast paths can be followed beyond to Torquay harbour and seafront. Torquay's three theatre's, The Princess, Babbacombe and Little Theatre are also all within easy reach.

Owner's Insight

"When I was searching for a new home nine years ago I was not looking for an apartment, but when I was encouraged to view and walked through the door it offered me everything I needed. Being on the top corner of the development, I enjoy the finest views over the valley and down toward Tor Bay with glimpses of the sea. The large two double bedroom design was a blank canvas, which I have upgraded and modernised to provide a comfortable home. The undercover parking, private secure store, and attractive communal gardens are added benefits.

The location is perfect. Wellswood is a matter of minutes walk away, and as keen walkers we have a beautiful loop down to the harbour, over Daddyhole Plain, past Meadfoot Beach and back through the Ilsham Valley or woodland."

Step Inside

A stepped or lift approach rises to the top floor, with four steps from the lift, leading to a private entrance door opening to the spacious reception hall with door entry system and two generous storage cupboards, one housing the Zip Aquapoint 3 heater. The sitting/dining room is a bright and spacious room enjoying a dual aspect with three windows overlooking the Warberries hillside and down the valley towards Tor Bay with sea peeps in the winter months. Serving hatch to the kitchen which is beautifully appointed with a contemporary range of white flush fronted units and quartz work tops with matching upstands and inset sink. Built-in Neff double oven, Neff ceramic hob with filter hood over, integrated dishwasher and washing machine, provision for free standing fridge/freezer.
