This top-floor penthouse in Aqua House sits front-and-centre on Millbay’s waterfront, delivering panoramic views across Plymouth Sound, Drake’s Island and Mount Edgcumbe. The apartment’s open-plan living area is framed by full-width bi-folds and two full-length balconies, creating a generous indoor–outdoor living experience ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Engineered oak floors, high ceilings and quality fitted appliances give the home a contemporary, well-finished feel.
The layout includes a principal suite with private balcony access and ensuite, two further double bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling glazing, a family bathroom, and a useful utility room. Practical extras include one allocated off-street parking space, secure video entry, lift access and a long lease of approximately 231 years. The property benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for those working from home.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs: an annual service charge of around £2,560 and a ground rent of approximately £350. Heating is provided via a community scheme rather than individual boilers, and council tax is described as expensive. The wider area shows pockets of high deprivation despite the development’s waterside setting and proximity to city-centre amenities.
This penthouse will suit purchasers seeking a distinctive coastal-city lifestyle — retirees or professionals wanting quality, low-maintenance living with exceptional views. It presents immediate move-in comfort and strong lifestyle appeal; buyers looking for a low-running-cost home should factor in the communal heating arrangement and the listed service charges.
