A huge five bedroom house overlooking Babbacombe Bay has gone up for sale.
Originally traded as a hotel and seaside café, Babbacombe Bay House has now been reconfigured as a stunning five-bedroom home incorporating several holiday apartments as well as a café. The new-look property is now on the market at £1,150,000 for the freehold.
Ed Jefferson, of Colliers International which are marketing the property, said: “Babbacombe Bay House can certainly be described as a completely refurbished property. Our client bought the building in 2013 and carefully restored it in order to trade as a hotel.
“He has now restored it once again to create an impressive family home including the stunning roof terrace featuring views across the bay, along with four holiday apartments and the thriving café.
“Having spent an enormous amount of time and effort completing these transformations, the owner has now decided to retire, giving new owners an exciting opportunity for a new life running a thriving business on the English Riviera.”
Arguably the finest resort town in the whole of Devon, Babbacombe is just 18 miles from Exeter and 28 miles from Plymouth. The popular English Riviera resorts of Paignton and Brixham are close by and there are excellent train connections to Torquay.
A major tourist draw with its own mild micro climate, the area is popular with visitors throughout the year.
Mr Jefferson added: “The latest configuration combines a beautifully refurbished home with the excellent, staff-run café and the self-contained apartments – it's an ideal lifestyle business.”
