Foxhole

Foxhole sits within the greater Paignton area, and the surrounding neighbourhoods share a strong reputation for affordability. House prices across the area rank among the lowest in Torbay, with detached homes from around £334,000 to £343,600 and flats dipping as low as £139,000 in Roundham with Hyde and King's Ash. This makes the area a solid option for buyers wanting more space for their money, whether you're after a family house or a starter flat. Schools and healthcare are a consistent strength. Good-rated primaries turn up across the wards, from Kings Ash Academy to Roselands Primary, and Preston stands out with two GP practices, a hospital and a dentist all close by. Crime is generally low and trending downward across the area, giving it a settled, family-friendly feel, though King's Ash still runs above average despite steady year-on-year improvement. The mild South Devon climate and good air quality are recurring perks too, keeping heating costs down and making outdoor living genuinely pleasant. Transport is where the neighbourhoods diverge most. Goodrington with Roselands and Roundham with Hyde benefit from railway stations and strong bus links, including a bus station, while Clifton with Maidenway, Collaton St Mary and King's Ash lean car-dependent, relying on good road connections to Paignton, Torquay and Exeter rather than frequent public transport. Wherever you land in this part of Torbay, you'll find everyday amenities covered locally, with Paignton itself close by for anything more.
