Description

Nestled behind mature hedging and a sweeping gated drive in the heart of Wellswood, Woodbury is a stunning Grade II listed Italianate detached Victorian villa built circa 1860. The property boasts many original exceptional features, including ornate ceiling details and stained glass floor-to-ceiling windows. The current owners have sympathetically restored the home, reinstating it from two apartments to one gracious house, while also securing planning approval for the construction of a garage.

The property is situated in the heart of Wellswood, with its own village atmosphere, offering a range of independent shops, a post office, and a highly regarded primary school. The area also boasts picturesque walks to Meadfoot Beach and the nearby Torquay Harbour and Marina. The property features an impressive reception hall with a bespoke staircase, a formal dining room with a marble fireplace, and a drawing room with a stunning ceiling and French doors leading to the garden.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been beautifully enhanced with bespoke units and a central island. The property also features a self-contained annexe with its own private entrance, subject to necessary permissions. With its unique blend of period charm and modern luxuries, Woodbury is a truly special home that offers a unique lifestyle and a chance to own a piece of history.
