2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright modern flat with water views and a rare powered garage, close to Royal William Yard..
Waterfront views with large bright open-plan living space
Rare single powered garage included — useful for parking or storage
Share of freehold; very long 899-year lease provides security
Two large double bedrooms within circa 657 sq ft
Double glazing fitted after 2002 reduces immediate window work
Heating by electric room heaters — higher running costs likely
Original granite walls assumed uninsulated; retrofit may be needed
Ground rent £900 pa — comparatively expensive ongoing cost
This modern two-bedroom flat sits within a handsome Georgian terrace and offers direct water views and a rare single garage with power — a genuine practical plus in this part of Plymouth. The open-plan living/kitchen enjoys large windows and bright natural light, making the most of the setting beside the water and nearby Historic Royal William Yard amenities.
The layout (approximately 657 sq ft) provides two large double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. The property is share of freehold with an exceptionally long lease (899 years), and double glazing was installed after 2002. These legal and fabric details give buyers long-term security and reduce immediate upgrade needs to windows and leasehold concerns.
Buyers should note some material considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, the original granite walls likely lack insulation, and the property sits in a generally deprived area despite very low recorded crime. Ground rent is currently £900 per year, which is high and will affect running costs.
This flat suits a first-time buyer seeking a stylish riverside starter home or an investor wanting good rental appeal close to student neighbourhoods and city amenities. The garage and waterfront location are standout features, but factor in higher ongoing service costs and potential retrofit expenses to improve heating and wall insulation.
