SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION A magnificent detached Victorian Villa positioned close to the coast whilst nestled quietly in grounds approaching an acre with three established holiday lets providing flexible living space and an income. Torbay Civic Society has recognised the prestige of this home, erecting a blue plaque for a former resident of the home, Arthur Milner, a former Chairman and President of Torquay United. In addition, theatre oweners Thomas and Mary Hoyle occupied the home from the turn of the 19th century to the mid-1940s. This imposing home boasts all the features and characteristics synonymous with the large Victorian Villas built in Torquay once favoured the Upper classes as a retreat for fresh air, mild climate and bathing waters. Having been extended and improved over the years this classic home now benefits from ample living and entertaining space with grounds to match, including the heated outdoor pool and beautiful gardens affording a high degree of privacy and seclusion. The long driveway takes you up to the main house and garage whilst providing parking for several vehicles.
