3 bed terraced house for sale

Hartop Road, Torquay TQ1

Hartop Road, St Marychurch, Torquay

Positioned in the heart of St Marychurch, moments from the precinct, the open green spaces of Babbacombe Downs and the fairways of Torquay Golf Club, this mature mid-terrace home offers well-balanced accommodation, private parking and a beautifully maintained rear garden - all within one of Torquay’s most consistently popular residential pockets.

Set in a slightly elevated position and approached via a newly fitted front door, the house immediately presents as a home that has been carefully maintained and thoughtfully improved over the last 15 years of ownership.

An entrance vestibule leads into a generous reception hallway with newly fitted carpets and useful understairs storage. The principal living space is arranged as an open lounge/dining room - a bright, high-ceilinged environment with excellent proportions, feature fireplace and built-in cabinetry, comfortably accommodating both seating and dining areas. It is an inviting and practical layout for modern family living.

To the rear, the property has been extended to create a well-designed kitchen overlooking the garden. Fitted with modern neutral cabinetry, a ceramic sink, gas hob and electric oven, there is space for an upright fridge freezer alongside a cleverly arranged laundry nook. A rear lean-to provides additional storage and everyday practicality.

The rear garden is a genuine highlight - landscaped with raised terrace and patio areas, planted borders and a secure gated rear access. Beyond the gate is private driveway parking accessed via Hilly Gardens Road, an increasingly valuable asset in this location.

Upstairs, the spacious landing benefits from a skylight window, enhancing the natural light and sense of space. The main bathroom is well proportioned and largely tiled, featuring a bath with shower over, radiator and heated towel rail, along with practical storage. There are two generous double bedrooms, both retaining original fireplaces, plus a third bedroom - ideal as a child’s room, guest room or home office.

With its condition, room sizes, garden, and rear parking, this is a ready-to-move-into home ideally suited to first-time buyers or young families seeking a well-located property with long-term appeal.
