Occupying a sought-after position on Mount Gould Road within the ever-popular PL4 postcode, this magnificent Victorian residence extends to approximately 2,185 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation, thoughtfully arranged over three floors. Having been meticulously restored and thoughtfully reimagined, the property seamlessly combines the elegance and craftsmanship of its period origins with the comfort and convenience of contemporary living.

From the moment you arrive, the home’s impressive proportions and timeless architectural features set the tone for what lies beyond. An entrance vestibule opens into a welcoming reception hallway, where soaring ceilings and an abundance of natural light immediately create a sense of space and grandeur. A staircase rises to the upper floors, while the accommodation flows effortlessly through the ground floor, showcasing a thoughtful balance between period elegance and modern living.

To the front, the sitting room is centred around a striking bay window that draws natural light deep into the room, creating an inviting setting for both relaxation and entertaining. High ceilings adorned with original coving, decorative ceiling roses and picture rails celebrate the property’s Victorian heritage. The adjoining dining room offers equally generous proportions and enjoys direct access to the courtyard garden via patio doors. Folding doors between the two rooms provide flexibility, allowing them to function independently or as one impressive open-plan living and entertaining space, perfectly suited to both family life and entertaining guests.

Further enhancing the ground floor is a convenient downstairs WC, useful understairs storage, a separate amenities cupboard which houses the washing machine and tumble dryer and an exceptional kitchen/breakfast room. Beautifully designed with both practicality and style in mind, this light-filled space features an extensive range of contemporary wall and base units, under-cabinet lighting, integrated appliances and generous preparation areas. Dual-aspect natural light, complemented by recessed spotlights and a refined finish throughout, creates a welcoming hub of the home, while sliding doors provide seamless access to the courtyard garden.

Externally, the enclosed courtyard offers a private and low-maintenance outdoor retreat. Enclosed by timber fencing and enjoying a high degree of privacy, it provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply unwinding. A gate provides convenient access to the rear service lane.

The first floor continues to impress with three generously proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom occupies a prominent position to the front of the property, enjoying a large bay window and the benefit of a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms offer flexible accommodation for family members, guests or those working from home, while a stylish three-piece family bathroom serves the remaining rooms on this floor.

Ascending to the second floor, the sense of space and versatility continues. Here, two further double bedrooms are connected by a contemporary Jack and Jill shower room, creating an ideal arrangement for guests, independent teenagers or multi-generational living.

One of the property’s most captivating features can also be found on this level: a superb south-facing roof terrace. Enjoying panoramic views stretching across Jennycliff, Plymouth Sound and the surrounding landscape, this exceptional outdoor space provides the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy sunshine throughout the day and the ever-changing coastal outlook.

Adding further appeal is an additional staircase leading to a substantial loft area. While previous planning consent relating to this space has not been formally signed off, it offers an exciting opportunity for a future owner to realise its potential, subject to any necessary consents. Whether envisioned as a home office, studio, additional reception room, hobby space or further bedroom accommodation, the possibilities are extensive.

The location is equally compelling. Mount Gould Road enjoys a highly convenient setting within the desirable PL4 postcode, placing a wealth of amenities within easy reach.
