Torquay showhomes launched in style

Barratt has launched the show homes at its prestigious Torre Marine development in Torquay in spectacular style. “Visitors enjoyed champagne and canapés prepared by a local chef and a local radio station was on site to promote the development on air and create a buzz at the event,” reports Louise Terry, Barratt’s field sales manager.

“We launched our Countess style town house and a two-bedroom apartment, to give visitors a taste of the wide variety of homes at Torre Marine,” she continued.

“The four-storey town house is one of eight being built in a crescent format, not unlike the famous crescent in Bath.

“The Countess has three bedrooms but there is scope for five, as the house boasts a downstairs study and an attic room – which could offer a great pad for a growing teenager. This home is priced from £289,950, and prices for the two-bedroom apartments start from £148,950.”

When complete, Torre Marine will offer 258 homes specially designed for buyers seeking a high specification home in an up and coming area. These will include one and two-bedroom apartments and two, three and four-bedroom houses. There will also be a landscaped communal space and dedicated parking areas for residents.

“The development is located just a short stroll from the seafront and forms a major part of the regeneration of Torquay,” Louise continued. “In fact, the local area has long enjoyed the reputation of being the ‘English Riviera’ and we’ve had lots of interest from a real mixture of buyers. Some are looking for a buy-to-let investment, while others want a holiday or second home.”

Torre Marine has also attracted families looking for modern living and first time buyers wanting a high specification starter home.

There’s something to suit everyone – from a two-bedroom coach house with garage (priced from £189,950), to a two-storey maisonette with garage (from £219,250) or a three-storey, mid-terrace house with garage (from £246,950).
