Description

LOCATION
Tor Vale is a charming residential area located in the heart of Torquay, within the Tormohun ward. Tor Vale enjoys a prime position with easy access to the local amenities within the town centre, both primary and secondary schools, and local transport links.

DESCRIPTION
The property has been owned by the vendors family for over 60 years. Historically the property was used as a guest house and BnB but for at least the last 10 years, it has been trading as a 9-bedroom House of Multiple Occupation.

Up until last year, the property was fully licensed and compliant with the HMO requirements of Torbay Council. Due to retirement, the vendors have closed the HMO and are selling the property with vacant possession.

The property has vast potential and could be converted into flats, a single-family dwelling, or family dwelling with a 'granny flat' (subject to planning).
