Owner Insight

"Parkview is an extremely elegant and well-built Edwardian House enjoying a beautiful outlook over Torwood Gardens Park.

We have lived here for over thirty years, and we have found it to be our ideal family home. We have enjoyed the convenience of being so close to all the local amenities including top restaurants where we have had many family celebrations. We have found a variety of interesting walks over the years, right from our doorstep, including the stunning coastline walks. We have always loved Torquay’s bustling Harbourside, which is only five minutes away!

So it is with great reluctance that we have finally decided to relocate for the support of our close family ensuring that we may enjoy our later retirement."
