Beachside home described as the best in Torquay hits market with $3 million-plus price hopes
An incredible Torquay residence, previously sold by V8 Supercars driver Will Davison has hit the market again.
The value of a luxury beachside residence at Torquay has gone into overdrive since V8 Supercars Bathurst winner Will Davison sold in 2017.
The amazing Wolveridge Architects home has hit the market again, with price hopes of $3.1 million to $3.3 million for the three-bedroom concrete and timber design.
The two-storey residence at 261 The Esplanade, Torquay, is neatly wedged between Whites Beach and The Sands championship golf course.

McCartney, Torquay listing agent Tim Carson said it’s one of the best homes in the Surf Coast capital.
It was short-listed for the Victorian Architecture Awards in 2013.
The current owners paid $2.25 million when they bought it from Davison in 2017.
“They are professional couple looking to relocate for work. But this has been the best home they’ve lived in,” Mr Carson said.
“They’ve lived in about 20 homes and they’ve moved around quite a bit for work,” he said.
The house, built by renowned local builder John Walker, is ideal for people who love to entertain and enjoy the home’s emphasis on indoor-outdoor living.
Three bedroom suites are upstairs, including ensuites and built-in wardrobes and a dressing room to the main bedroom.
A dedicated study with built-in cabinetry is next to the designer kitchen with custom concrete and ultra-high-end resin bench tops and Miele appliances.
Two living spaces include an intimate lounge/media room with an open fireplace, while 5m ceilings soar above the expansive dining and living room opening out onto the north-facing entertaining area and a 13m in-ground pool.
Polished concrete floors and large sliding doors and windows and cedar exterior battens embody the beach lifestyle.
“Honestly, this is one of the best homes that I’ve ever seen,” Mr Carson said.
“You just walk in and see the quality, the architecture and the practicality of it.
“It’s such a beautiful living home, no space is wasted.
“You’ve got beautiful concrete floors and the outlook to the north-facing in-ground pool.”
