A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful Victorian home offering exceptional flexibility, extensive gardens and an enviable central yet peaceful location. Internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, character and versatility on offer.

Description
A substantial and beautifully restored Victorian house overlooking Beaumont Park. This double-fronted home combines striking period architecture, generous proportions and a wealth of original features.

.
Originally built as a private home more than 130 years ago, the house has spent much of its history as a doctor’s surgery before returning to residential use. It retains its original character, with spacious and versatile accommodation throughout. The double-fronted limestone façade and end-of-terrace position give the house the feel of a semi-detached home, with generous proportions that lend themselves well to family life, entertaining or multi-generational living.

.
The spacious entrance hall retains a wealth of original Victorian detail, including patterned floor tiles, mahogany entrance doors with etched glass panels and an original mahogany staircase with its elegant banisters and spindles. The ground floor offers four substantial reception rooms, currently arranged as a lounge, dining room, study and games and music room with original plasterwork and stripped timber floors. The lounge and dining room feature rare matching cast iron fireplaces and an original Lincrusta frieze. The large kitchen was newly fitted in 2019 and features solid oak doors, twin ovens and an extra-large induction hob with matching splashback. There is an integrated dishwasher, and ample space for an American-style fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. The windows overlook the established garden, bringing the outside in and providing plenty of natural light. A downstairs WC is conveniently located nearby.

.
Upstairs, there are six bedrooms comprising four doubles and two singles. One of the single bedrooms adjoins a double bedroom and offers considerable flexibility, equally suited to use as a dressing room, nursery, home office or private sitting room. A separate shower room serves the guest double bedroom and adjoining single bedroom. The generous landing also provides useful additional space, with potential for a reading area, study space or drying area.

.
The exceptionally spacious family bathroom is beautifully finished, with a crystal chandelier, Victorian-style patterned wall tiles and a stripped timber tongue-and-groove floor. A traditional roll-top bath and walk-in shower are complemented by a Victorian-style WC and basin, with traditional radiators completing the room. Double glazing is installed throughout.

Garden
The established wrap-around gardens are a particular feature of the house. Mature privet hedging provides a high degree of privacy, while cottage-style planting, vegetable-growing areas, a greenhouse, woodshed and approximately ten young fruit trees give the gardens both character and purpose. A number of secluded seating areas create different spaces to enjoy throughout the day.

Coach House
A particularly distinctive feature of the property is the substantial former coach house, incorporating the original stable and a two-storey hayloft. The building provides garaging and parking for two vehicles, together with storage and workshop space. Its generous proportions, historic character and versatility offer a range of possibilities, whether as a dedicated workshop, studio, home office, garden room or further ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. For those looking for a home offering more than simply family accommodation, the Coach House provides valuable additional space that could be adapted to suit individual requirements.

Improvements
The house and outbuildings have benefited from a number of important improvements, including a full electrical rewire and underfloor insulation. An A-rated combination boiler was installed in 2019 and has been serviced annually.

Location
Overlooking Beaumont Park, which is locked each evening, the house is ideally placed for enjoying all that Plymouth has to offer. Plymouth city centre is approximately a 10-minute walk away. The Ebrington Street Conservation Area, cinemas, restaurants and The Box are all within easy walking distance, as are the National Marine Aquarium, the Barbican and Plymouth Hoe. The waterfront and Royal William Yard are also within easy reach, while Mount Edgcumbe, Wembury, Dartmoor and the wider coast are all readily accessible, making the house well placed for both city life and time spent outdoors.
