4 bedroom detached house for sale
Laburnum Cottage, Torquay
£230,000
    This chain-free home combines timeless character with a clean and modern aesthetic throughout and is ideally positioned within easy walking distance of the harbourside.

    The holiday-let business has an established track record of generating a strong annual income, with earnings of £27,673.44 in 2023, £25,392.34 in 2024 and £22,302.24 in 2025. The current owner lives some distance away, meaning the business has been successfully operated remotely. For a new owner who is locally based and able to take a more hands-on and proactive approach to the management and marketing of the property, there may be further scope to increase bookings, improve occupancy and maximise the earning potential.

    The property is immaculate throughout and offers two elegant reception rooms, a cosy snug and two well-appointed bathrooms. With four spacious bedrooms and a versatile layout, it is ideally suited to continued holiday letting while also offering the flexibility to be used as a family home.

    The recently updated private rear courtyard features a smart resin finish, providing an attractive and low-maintenance outdoor space for guests to enjoy.

    There may also be potential to explore the possibility of creating an additional roof terrace area outside one of the bedrooms, subject to the necessary planning permissions, consents and feasibility.

    The main bathroom has also recently benefited from a brand-new shower, further enhancing the property's excellent presentation and appeal.

    Being sold chain-free, this represents a particularly attractive opportunity for an investor, established holiday-let operator or someone looking to purchase a property with an existing income-generating business. With the business already established and operating successfully, a new owner can take over an existing setup while potentially developing and growing the income further through more proactive, locally based management.
