Introduction Overcrag is a detached property arranged over two floors, covering 2,965 square feet. Although the property is generally in good condition, it would benefit from reconfiguration to maximise its location and align with contemporary coastal home design trends. This is an opportunity to fully embrace the stunning views and exceptional location.Seller’s Story When the chance to purchase Overcrag arose in 2014, we knew it was meant to be our home. Already residing on Rock End, we were aware that few properties offer such a dramatic position with uninterrupted sea views.The building was in its original state, and over the years, we have made enhancements to meet our needs. However, with a house like this, it is the plot that stands out, and a new owner might wish to redesign it according to their own preferences.In our view, the location is unparalleled in Torbay. We relish the outstanding views and the convenience of being just minutes' walk from restaurants, theatres, Torquay Marina, and Meadfoot Beach.The Inside The property’s entrance opens into a welcoming hallway. Bedrooms on either side offer potential for repurposing, such as transforming them into a study or hobby room. Continuing down the hallway, you’ll find an inner hall providing access to two guest bedrooms, each with its own en-suite shower room, as well as an additional shower room.Opposite the entrance hall, double doors open into the kitchen breakfast room. This ‘L’-shaped space extends into the garden room and living room. There is also a door leading to the double garage and storage area.The sun room capitalises on the panoramic bay views, featuring windows that span from side to side and French doors opening to the garden. The spectacular view from here could be further integrated into the current layout. The sun room seamlessly connects to the sitting room, which has a door leading back to the entrance hall. The living room is a spacious area currently used as a home gym, offering magnificent views of the sea.The first floor is dedicated to the main bedroom suite, which makes the most of the views and includes an en-suite bathroom.The Outside At the front of the property, there is a generous parking area with access to the rear on one side. Additionally, there is a large raised flower bed and a double garage.The rear garden is designed over two levels, focusing on the view. The upper tier, accessible directly from the sun room, features a resin surface and a small lawn area. Steps lead down to the lower level, which includes a small greenhouse and a private gate leading onto the South West Coast Path.Location As a UNESCO Global Geopark, Torbay is a paradise for those who love the water and coastal living. With Torquay Marina less than a mile away, this location is perfect for boat enthusiasts or anyone who enjoys a seaside lifestyle.
