Commanding open southerly views over the adjoining Cary Park, this bright apartment occupies a top/second floor position within a purpose built wing of an established development. Affording a versatile three bedroom design, the sitting/dining room opens to a private balcony enjoying the park view. The property has been a loved home for our client since 1997, and priced to reflect general modernisation now beneficial.
Rathlin is enviably positioned next to Cary Park 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.
EPC Rating: C
Owner Insight
"It has been a very happy home for mum for twenty seven years, and as a keen bowler and member of Babbacombe she could walk to the club quickly. More recently when health prevented her from playing bowls, she could still see the club and loved watching activity in the park from the balcony. Everything mum could need was close at hand, and the allocated parking means you never have to worry about trying to find a space, although the road is generally quiet unless Torquay United are playing at home."
