Chain-free two-bedroom apartment on The Hoe with balcony and exceptional sea outlook.
Panoramic sea and promenade views from lounge and front bedroom
A rare second-floor apartment in an iconic Grade II* Italianate terrace on The Hoe, offered chain-free and with stunning panoramic views across the promenade to Plymouth Sound. The flat has a full-width front balcony accessed from both the lounge/diner and front bedroom, plus lift access to all floors — excellent for sea-view living and easy access.
This is a refurbishment opportunity: the apartment requires updating throughout, has electric storage heating, an EPC rating of D and shows signs consistent with a fixer-upper (potential damp/mould noted externally). Buyers should expect a full renovation to modernise services, heating and insulation; the building’s listed status will limit alterations and likely increase costs and consents required.
Practical details: the property is leasehold with 117 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,960 plus a £700 reserve fund contribution, and a peppercorn ground rent. Broadband speeds are slow locally despite excellent mobile signal. There is no flood risk and local crime levels are very low.
This apartment will suit buyers who prize location and outlook — investors seeking a high-demand waterside let or owner-occupiers wanting a project in a prestigious setting. Factor in listed-building constraints, service charges and renovation costs when considering value and scope for improvement.
