Situation & Description - A striking 1930s Robert Lutyens-designed Streamlined Modern Art Deco home, perfectly positioned on a sought-after, tranquil residential road, offering breath taking panoramic views over "The Bay."

Torquay is one of three beautiful towns forming the sheltered Tor Bay and is renowned for the warm climate, clear bathing waters and clean air. The local beaches form a golden arc around the bay with shingle coves scattered nearby. The town provides a wonderful quality of life for its residents with excellent shopping, waterside restaurants, a theatre and bars. Internationally renowned water sports are held in the sheltered bay, with the marina providing excellent mooring facilities for luxury yachts and motor cruisers. The area provides many scenic walks along south Devon's coastal footpaths, with local golf courses also nearby. Cockington Estate and large areas of woodland are 2.5 miles away, so great for dog walking.

There are first class educational facilities on your doorstep, within a couple of miles are Torquay Boys and Girls grammar schools as well as a number of well-regarded state and private sector schools. Local shops are close by, and access to Exeter and beyond is easy thanks to the South Devon Link Road.

Accommodation - Originally described in a 1920s brochure as part of “140 acres of terraced loveliness,” the Broadpark area has long been celebrated for its beauty and architectural significance. The original vision spoke of “veritable dream homes skilfully designed to derive the utmost advantages of the aspect,” and this property is a shining example of that legacy. Built on what was described as “brave lines,” it remains a unique and distinguished home—one of which any owner might be justifiably proud.

The ground floor showcases a beautifully designed open-plan layout, featuring a recently installed bespoke mid-century style kitchen, seamlessly flowing into the dining area—the perfect space for the family to come together and entertaining. A welcoming sitting room leads into a light-filled garden room, creating a wonderful connection to the outdoors. There is also a separate home office, ideal for remote working or quiet study. Adding to the practicality of the space, a spacious utility room/larder is conveniently located just off the kitchen and provides internal access to the integrated garage.

The first floor boasts three comfortable double bedrooms with the addition of a dressing room, well-appointed family bathroom, plus a further ensuite to the second bedroom. Drift upstairs to the second floor, where a thoughtfully designed extension creates a self-contained suite with a kitchenette, bedroom, sitting area, and contemporary ensuite—highlighted by an exceptional sense of light and space, and featuring bifold doors that open onto a balcony with breath taking panoramic views of the sea, coastline, and surrounding landscape. Offering the potential to create a self-contained annexe, ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or holiday letting. Enhancing the coastal lifestyle, the property boasts three balconies and decks, each thoughtfully positioned to capture the breath taking sea views and provide inviting outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy the stunning surroundings.

Outside - Outside, the property enjoys a charming and easily maintained front garden, while the private west-facing rear garden is a true haven—perfectly positioned to capture the afternoon and evening sun. This beautifully landscaped space features a sheltered deck and sunny seating area, ideal for relaxing or entertaining friends and family. The garden is mostly laid to lawn and complemented by mature shrubs, trees, several vegetable beds, a beautiful Maple tree, a wildflower patch, and a professionally designed flower garden bordered by fragrant lavender. A standout addition is the heated Scandinavian summer house with electrics—currently used as a gym, but equally suited as a home office or creative studio.

Completing the property is a single garage and convenient driveway parking.
