Description

Located in the sought-after Grafton Court, this ground floor apartment offers a unique blend of luxury and tranquillity. Positioned above Torquay's Yacht Marina, commanding awe-inspiring views of Torbay and its picturesque surroundings, this residence epitomizes coastal living at its finest.

As the apartment boasts a prime south orientation, its patio serves as a picturesque vantage point from which residents can enjoy captivating panoramas. The property emphasizes practicality and convenience by providing a generously sized garage, residents' parking, and meticulously maintained communal gardens. Positioned to capture enviable views, yet discreetly set back from the bustling town centre, residents enjoy the best of both worlds - proximity to amenities and a peaceful sanctuary to call home.

It's worth highlighting that Grafton Court underwent renovations in recent years. The building exterior received a fresh coat of paint in 2019, maintaining its pristine appearance. Inside, the communal areas were thoughtfully redecorated and adorned with updated carpets in 2023.

Nestled within the highly regarded Warberries conservation area, residents of Grafton Court can explore a myriad of scenic walking trails that wind through the lush landscapes of this cherished area. Torquay's vibrant waterfront, replete with water sports, waterfront dining establishments, cultural venues, and retail outlets, lies moments away. This ensures an unrivalled lifestyle of leisure and entertainment. Moreover, the property's enviable proximity to Lisburne Square and the charming village of Wellswood ensures effortless access to a wealth of local amenities.
