EPC Rating: D OWNERS INSIGHT "We moved into 1 Belmont Road with our two young children in December 1992. It was supposed to be a one year stay whilst we looked for our 'perfect' house in Torquay. It turned out that Belmont Road was 'perfect' so we stayed! The location was ideal for the whole family, it is a ten minute walk to Babbacombe Downs, beautiful beaches, plus pubs, restaurants and Babbacombe Theatre, and twenty minutes to The Strand and the centre of town, the local school is five minutes away. Belmont has always been a happy house and we have created many wonderful memories here. The house is unique, it is really two houses blended into one. Just when you think you have seen all there is, something else appears to see and explore. The road itself is quiet and the neighbours are delightful, we will miss them! Why move now? The children are now grown and have their own properties, we two are left in a large house, it is time for others to enjoy all that Belmont has to offer."
