Summary - 17, Whittington Street PL3 4EG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Character-filled two-bedroom flat with private terrace and Cornwall views.
Top-floor flat with superb privacy and high ceilings
A light-filled top-floor flat in a Victorian terrace that balances period charm with modern updates. High ceilings, a striking bay window and an elegant fireplace give the lounge and main bedroom strong character, while the tasteful kitchen and three-piece bathroom provide contemporary convenience.
The kitchen opens onto a private terrace with views toward Cornwall — a rare outdoor space for this building type and a real bonus for morning coffee or evening fresh air. At about 707 sq ft the layout offers a spacious double bedroom plus a versatile single room for a study, guest room or nursery. Share of freehold gives longer-term control compared with a typical leasehold flat.
Practical points to note: the property sits in an area described as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood and wider 'hampered aspiration' classification, which can mean higher daytime activity and a mixed demographic. The building’s stone walls are likely uninsulated (as built), so heating costs may be higher than modern construction without retrofit. There is one bathroom and average overall size, so buyer expectations should match this smaller two-bedroom home.
This property will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking character, a private terrace and strong transport/broadband links in central Plymouth. It’s presented well but offers scope for targeted improvements — particularly insulation and any cosmetic updates — to boost comfort and value.
