Set on the ground floor of a Victorian terrace in Stonehouse, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment delivers generous living space and period character within easy reach of Plymouth city centre, the Hoe and the waterfront. The large lounge with high ceilings and restored sash windows feels bright and welcoming; a remodelled shower room and a separate kitchen/diner give the flat a practical, comfortable layout for everyday living.
A private courtyard garden and an allocated off-road parking space are rare extras for a central apartment, creating a small outdoor retreat and convenient vehicle access. Ownership comes with a share of the freehold and an exceptionally long lease (998 years), plus no onward chain — all positive for a buyer wanting straightforward security and minimal immediate legal complication.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central, characterful home with good letting or short-stay potential. Be aware of the neighbourhood context: the area is classified as very deprived with very high recorded crime levels. The apartment itself is well-presented but located in a hard-pressed urban neighbourhood, so buyers should weigh the location’s convenience against local social and safety factors.
Practical notes: council tax is low (Band A) and there is no flood risk. Ground rent is listed at £300 (average) — factor this into running costs. Overall this is a compact but roomy-feeling city-flat with genuine lifestyle and investment appeal, provided buyers are comfortable with the surrounding area’s challenges.
