EPC Rating: D OWNER INSIGHT "In 1999, I wanted to find an individual, spacious and quiet family home within a catchment area of excellent schools. Knowing Torquay well, I knew that Cornacre Close would meet the school requirements, as Sherwell Valley Primary and both the Boys & Girls Grammar Schools are within easy walking distance. Upon viewing 8 Cornacre, I was impressed with the individuality of the home, together with the spacious layout. The generous garden also provided a pleasant surprise. In 2002 planning permission was granted to convert the downstairs into a one bedroom annex. Upon receiving the 'Certificate of Completion of Work', the annex was rented out and provided a valuable second income. If required, internal access from the main house to the annex, can easily be reinstated as the stairs are still in place. This has been a great family home and we have enjoyed our 26 years living here. However, with my daughter and partner shortly starting out on their new journey, it is now time to downsize."
