Ilsham Road, Torquay, TQ1

We fell in love with this home for its secluded feel yet easy access to amenities. The mature gardens, treetop views, and wildlife make it a peaceful retreat. We've loved strolling through the wildflower meadow to the beach and enjoying the pool, whether on a sunny day or under the moonlight.

Owners Interview
When we first saw this home, we fell in love with its slightly secluded position-offering peace and privacy while still being just moments from all the local amenities. The extensive gardens, filled with mature shrubs and trees, immediately drew us in, creating a beautiful natural retreat.

Living here has been an absolute joy. We've loved being surrounded by treetops, watching the wildlife from our windows, and yet being just a short walk from a fantastic patisserie. One of our favourite things is strolling through the wildflower meadow to reach the beach in just a few minutes-it's a special kind of escape.

Our absolute favourite feature has to be the pool. Whether it's a refreshing dip on a sunny day or a peaceful swim under the moonlight, it has given us countless cherished moments. Combined with the many beautiful aspects of the garden, this home has truly been a place of relaxation and happiness for us.
