New to the market is this newly renovated first floor apartment in the heart of Babbacombe, perfectly placed for a relaxed, walkable lifestyle. Just a short stroll from Babbacombe Downs, Walls Hill and St Marychurch precinct, you have a wide choice of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities virtually on the doorstep – an ideal setting for first time buyers or anyone wanting a bright, low-maintenance home in a prime spot.
Forming part of a converted house of just two dwellings, the property is approached via a shared communal entrance, with each flat enjoying an equal share of the freehold. Maintenance is arranged informally on an “as and when” basis between the two owners, keeping things simple.
On arrival, a generous reception hallway on the ground floor provides an ideal area for coats, shoes and storage, with stairs rising to the apartment itself. At the top of the stairs a particularly spacious landing sets the tone – a great multi-use space that could easily accommodate a study desk, reading corner or additional storage. A small feature window ensures this area, and the apartment as a whole, feels naturally light and airy, helped further by high ceilings and large windows.
The accommodation has been newly carpeted and decorated throughout and offers two bedrooms – a well-proportioned double and a generous single. To the rear is a large lounge/dining room overlooking the garden, giving plenty of space for both seating and dining furniture. Depending on lifestyle, buyers may choose to use this as an impressive main bedroom instead, with the current double bedroom then working well as a separate living room – the layout is flexible and will suit different needs.
The newly renovated bathroom features new flooring, a panelled bath with shower over, wash basin, radiator and low level WC, along with a very useful built-in linen cupboard ideal for towels and bedding.
A newly installed Howden’s kitchen completes the accommodation, fitted with ample worktop space and storage, space for an upright fridge/freezer and washing machine, together with a new gas hob and electric oven. The apartment benefits from double glazing and gas central heating throughout.
Outside, there is shared use of the rear garden, providing a pleasant outdoor space to enjoy. Parking is available on road in the surrounding area.
Overall, this is a spacious, bright and move-in ready apartment in a superb lifestyle location, ideal for buyers looking to get on the ladder and make the most of everything Babbacombe and St Marychurch have to offer. A simple transaction as the property is empty with no onward chain.

Location
Babbacombe and neighbouring St Marychurch are among Torquay’s most popular districts, combining striking coastal scenery with really practical day-to-day convenience. Babbacombe Downs offers one of the finest sea views on the English Riviera, with clifftop lawns, cafés and pubs overlooking Oddicombe and Babbacombe beaches below, both accessible via paths and the historic cliff railway. From here you can pick up the South West Coast Path towards Torquay harbour or Maidencombe.
St Marychurch precinct is a level, mainly pedestrianised shopping area with supermarkets, independent stores, bakeries, banks, cafés and a post office, meaning most daily needs can be met without a car. The area is also well served by regular bus routes into Torquay town centre, the seafront and Paignton, with local schools, churches, medical facilities and green spaces such as Cary Park all close at hand, helping to make this a well-established, year-round community as well as a favourite holiday spot.
