This superb example of an early Modern house is located in a sought-after residential area in the coastal town of Torquay. It enjoys some of the finest views on the South Coast with sweeping vistas across Torbay. The five-bedroom house, originally constructed in the 1930s, has been lovingly restored by the current owners over the past four years.

The property is referred to in the Warberries Conservation Area Appraisal as ‘a thirties Modern Movement house, angular with bold straight lines, flat roofs, sun balconies and metal frame windows with horizontal glazing bars. It is in a completely different aesthetic from the villa style, but its high quality of design makes it a worthy addition’.

Accommodation includes five bedrooms, a study, utility room, cloakroom and a beautiful kitchen / dining / living room. The master bedroom suite, featuring oak flooring, sits at the top floor of this three-story house and incorporates a shower room and full-height glazed doors that open out onto a wide balcony with wonderful views. The second and third bedrooms also benefit from en-suite facilities. There is an integral garage at the property and the extensive landscaped garden to the rear of the house features a terraced area, lawns and a summer house.

The house can be found on Higher Warberry Road in an area known as The Warberries. This historic area is characterised by large Victorian villas, winding roads and superb sea views. The centre of Torquay is a short walk away, as are some highly-rated schools. The celebrated Meadfoot Beach can be reached by foot in approximately twenty minutes or five minutes by car. Torquay and the surrounding area is well known for its wonderful coastal landscapes, excellent dining venues (including the Michelin starred The Elephant in Torquay) and sailing. Torquay can be reached from London in under three hours by train (with one change at Newton Abbot).
