4 bedroom apartment for sale
The Manor House Apartments, Seaway Lane, Torquay, TQ2
£695,000
    The Brunel Tower penthouse occupies the top floor of a beautiful grade II listed building of significant heritage dating back to 1860. Positioned above Cockington Valley, local beaches are within easy reach as well as Torquay seafront, harbourside and the green spaces or Torre Abbey. The Manor house benefits from off street parking, well kept communal grounds and a leisure suite including heated indoor swimming pool, gym and changing rooms. The penthouse apartment benefits from its own dedicated storage cupboard within this area as well as a separate annex in the main building which could suit a variety of uses.

    As you approach the main entrance you are greeted by impressive character features including gothic timber doors leading into a stunning reception hall. The space is dominated by an incredible "flying staircase" made to resemble the staircase between the decks of a ship. It is a feat of engineering mainly crafted in "pitch pine". This is private to the apartment and surrounded by a gallery which provides a wonderful additional dining space with a unique ambience.

    As you enter the apartment, you are greeted into a large "L" shaped hallway with storage cupboards and a rear door to a second internal staircase allowing access in and out of the apartment as well as utility area.

    The kitchen offers ample space for a dining table and is fitted with a range of base units with granite worktops over. There is a fitted stainless steel range cooker, dishwasher and handy waste disposal unit. French doors lead out to a balcony overlooking the gardens with stunning sea views beyond.

    The lounge is a great size and also enjoys fantastic views from a bay window to the rear. Character features include an ornate timbered ceiling with decorative coving as well as a beautiful marble fireplace with cast iron surround.

    There are four double bedrooms all with access to an en-suite shower room via jack and jill doors.

    From the study, steps lead up into a snug decorated with gothic wood style panelling and a quadruple aspect. A further staircase rises into the showpiece moment; an observatory tower with 360 degree views from one of the highest points in Torbay. It is decorated with intricate wood carved panelling and an exposed timber beam ceiling.
