we saw Rock Edge we both fell in love with it.  The sea views were simply breathtaking and we enjoy them as much today as we did the first time we visited.Over the years we have constantly updated the property to modern standards and although we have considered extending upwards, we have always felt that the accommodation on offer provided us with everything we needed.  The close proximity to the town centre, coast path walks, access to Daddyhole Plain and the marina was a key factor for us buying, particularly as it is only a short five minute walk down the hill.We hope that the new buyers will enjoy Rock Edge as much as we have, it certainly is a very special home.STEP INSIDE On entering the property it is very clear that this is a house of exceptional quality and is immaculately presented throughout.  The accommodation is set to a 'reverse level' plan to make the very most of the outstanding views from the main receptions.  From the entrance hallway there is a cloakroom / wc and a useful storage area with room to hang up coats and store shoes.  The main two reception rooms take the form of a large 'L' shaped living room affording stunning bay views and a modern bespoke kitchen / dining room, perfect for modern day entertaining.  Both rooms interconnect each other and provide a smooth transition between receptions.  Just off the kitchen is a useful pantry and side conservatory room leading out to a private breakfast area.  From the living room, there is a fourth bedroom or study room to suit one's requirements.From the entrance hallway stairs lead down to a spacious landing area.  There are three bedrooms to this level comprising two doubles and a single.  All of the bedrooms afford views over the rear garden out to Torbay.  The master bedroom is a generous size double with fitted wardrobes and access into a modern three piece en suite shower room.  The family bathroom is a large modern four piece suite of exceptional quality with tiled flooring

into the loft to create additional living space should one wish. STEP OUTSIDE Rock Edge sits within a generous size plot of 0.33 acre.  To the front of the house is a brick paved driveway providing private off road parking for a couple of vehicles and leading to a good size garage with lighting, power and an electric up and over door.  The front garden is terraced to two levels with low maintenance in mind as the main garden is to the rear of the house.  Should one require additional driveway parking this area could easily be adapted to suit this.As previously mentioned, the main

and affords panoramic views across Torbay.  These are views with a real wow factor!  A series of pathways interspersed with sitting areas and well stocked, colourful rockeries leads down to the main

This is not just a character property, it is a statement of refined living. Settle down in a room where a Queen has dined, wander through a building designed and occupied by a Cardinal and sleep in a bed where a French Queen laid her head.

Another interesting historical note refers to Marie Antoinette, the last Queen of France who met a rather untimely end at the tender age of only 37.. Within the property is the very bed the Queen occupied. Adorned with Lilieve silk, this very piece was featured on the cover of Vogue magazine photographed in the middle of the lake fronting Versailles Palace. it was acquired by the present owners and this historical artefact forms part of the exquisite furnishings which are to remain within this sale.
