This attractive Victorian semi-detached house on Antony Road blends period character with practical modern updates, arranged over two floors to suit family life. The bay-fronted living room with a wood-burning stove provides a warm focal point, while the adjoining dining room and French doors create a good flow to the enclosed rear garden. A contemporary fitted kitchen with a utility area and ground-floor WC add everyday convenience.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, the principal occupying the bay front and offering generous wardrobe space. The family bathroom is modernised with a shower-over-bath and metro-style tiling, plus a separate upstairs WC for added flexibility. High ceilings, original mouldings and solid wood flooring retain the home’s period appeal while neutral decoration makes it largely move-in ready.
Outside the front is raised and enclosed with low-maintenance landscaping; the rear garden is fully enclosed with patio and lawn areas suitable for children and entertaining. The plot is modest in size, so outdoor space is practical rather than expansive. Tenure is freehold and the property sits close to local shops, good-rated schools and the ferry link to Plymouth, useful for commuters.
Notable negatives are the property’s setting within a generally deprived local area and the small plot size; the exterior and garden edges would benefit from some updating. Buyers seeking wide-open grounds or a rural retreat should look elsewhere, but families wanting a well-presented period home near amenities and transport links will find strong appeal.
