A spacious Victorian terrace a short walk from Plymouth Hoe, this freehold town house offers clear rental and family potential for an investor or hands-on buyer. The property spans almost 1,920 sq ft across multiple levels, with large bay-windowed reception rooms, high ceilings and original period features that lend character and scope for improvement.
Every room requires modernisation, so the house is best suited to a buyer planning a comprehensive refurbishment or conversion into multi-lets/annexe space. The lower-ground floor could be formed into a self-contained unit and the attic rooms provide extra bedrooms without needing building-regulation conversion, increasing flexibility for rental layouts or an extended family home.
Practical positives include gas central heating, UPVc double glazing, mains services and ultrafast broadband availability. Outside there is a small enclosed rear courtyard and residents’ permit/on-street parking. Be aware there is a single family bathroom and the property will need cosmetic and systems updating throughout.
Located in a mixed, cosmopolitan area close to transport links, schools and city amenities, the house appeals to buy-to-let investors or buyers seeking a large home near the Hoe. The surrounding neighbourhood is very deprived economically but benefits from very low crime and strong rental demand from students and migrant families, supporting income potential post-refurbishment.
