2 bed detached house for sale

Plantation Way, Torquay TQ2

An ultra-modern detached coach house with superb kerb appeal, forming part of the striking Fusion development by Messrs Cavanna Homes. Bought off-plan by the current owners and much loved as their first home, the property has been beautifully kept and offers a smart, low-maintenance layout with the remainder of the NHBC structural guarantee in place.

Set in a peaceful cul-de-sac position with fields and trees behind the development, the property has a brilliant sense of privacy and calm. Unlike many coach houses, this home has no adjoining neighbours, giving it a more detached feel and reducing the usual concerns around noise and shared walls. The approach is smart and attractive, with driveway parking for two vehicles and a garage positioned beneath the accommodation.

The front door opens into a practical entrance area, with stairs rising to the main living space on the first floor. The accommodation is bright and well-balanced, helped by a sunny aspect, generous ceiling heights and cleverly placed skylights which draw natural light through the property.

The main living area is a lovely open-plan lounge/dining room, offering excellent space for both relaxing and entertaining. There is plenty of room for a sofa suite and dining table, while the Juliet balcony to the front adds to the light, open feel. The kitchen sits just off the living space and has a smart, practical layout with plenty of worktop space, good cupboard storage, an integrated dishwasher, gas hob, built-in oven and space for a fridge freezer.

There are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly good size and benefits from a useful dressing area, while the second bedroom also feels generous and includes built-in storage. The bathroom is spacious and neatly presented, fitted with a bath with shower over and screen, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel radiator.

On the ground floor, the larger-than-average garage is a real bonus. It has power and lighting, plenty of space for storage, bikes, paddleboards or hobbies, and a handy laundry/storage area, keeping the practical side of day-to-day life tucked neatly away from the main living accommodation.

Outside, the property enjoys a private, low-maintenance garden space, ideal for barbecues, outside dining or simply relaxing in the sun. The garden has been designed for ease, with artificial lawn, decked seating area and a sail-style canopy creating a usable and private spot with very little upkeep required.

This is a superb first home, lock-up-and-leave property or modern downsizing option, offering all the benefits of a nearly new home, attractive presentation, parking, garaging and a peaceful setting within a convenient Torquay location.
