Torquay

Located at the top end of Chelston, the bungalow sits on a large corner plot above Cockington Village with views across fields and woodland. Although located in a quiet residential location, the bungalow is still close to local amenities at Walnut Road and rail & road links.

Spyglass is well appointed with a good size kitchen, ‘L’ shaped dining & living room making the most of the views, 4 bedrooms, modern shower room and utility room. The bungalow has a room located to the side known as the playroom which is accessed from the front of the property. This area could be utilised as an annex for Air BnB or as a Granny Flat or to create Ensuite bathrooms to 2 of the bedrooms. The large driveway and car port off Loxbury Rise offers parking for circa 4 cars.  The garage is accessed from Loxbury Road with steps leading up to the front garden.   The Bungalow has lawned gardens to the side and front and a wrap round patio. 

The property would benefit from a degree of modernisation and remodelling making this the perfect opportunity for any buyer looking to put their own stamp on a property.  Alternatively, there is potential for extending the property further to create a house over 2 floors or for complete redevelopment subject to planning permission.

There is an active planning application with Torbay Council – Ref: P/2025/0604 for the demolition and construction of extensions to front, rear and side (northwest) elevations, installation of solar panels, reconfiguration of landscaping, and associated external alterations including retaining walls and raised terrace to front and freestanding pergola to side (east). Plans available via the selling agent Bettesworths.
