OWNERS INSIGHT

"After a lot of consideration, we have reluctantly decided to place our fabulous bungalow on the market and look for a more suitable home in the Torquay area. Failing health has been instrumental in our need to find a new home. We feel that an apartment with a balcony will meet our future needs. We have taken time in our ownership to totally transform our bungalow into a bright open plan living space ideal for entertaining - which makes full use of the decked terrace and south facing garden with sea-views. Hosting many happy events and celebrations for family and friends has been lovely. The proximity too Roundhill Road shops and Cockington Country Park on the doorstep the location has been ideal. What has made it extra special for us our neighbours and friends of Livermead the community has been wonderful."
