About this home

SUMMARY ***Tucked away on historic New Street, this characterful 19th-century two-bedroom apartment offers a peaceful retreat complete with a secure gated entrance, communal gardens, a unique mezzanine level with a spiral staircase, and potential for cosmetic improvement-all just steps from the vibrant Southside Street and offered with no onward chain.***

LOCATION Beyond the front door, the property places you right in the heart of Plymouth's historic Barbican. You are mere steps away from an eclectic mix of independent boutiques, artisan art galleries, acclaimed restaurants, and lively cafes. The stunning Plymouth Sound, picturesque Mayflower Steps, and scenic waterfront walks are all just a short stroll away, offering a lifestyle that effortlessly combines rich local heritage with modern coastal convenience.

DESCRIPTION Tucked quietly away just behind the vibrant and bustling Southside Street, the property enjoys an exceptionally peaceful atmosphere despite its wonderfully central position. Access is delightfully atmospheric, approached via a secure gated entrance that leads from a picturesque cobbled road of Castle Dyke Lane. Upon arrival, residents are welcomed through a well-maintained communal garden, providing a tranquil escape before stepping inside through the communal doorway. The apartment itself offers a truly unique layout brimming with character and excellent potential for cosmetic improvement, allowing any incoming purchaser the exciting opportunity to stamp their own style and specification on a home. Stepping inside the flat on the first level, the front of the building accommodates a bright and inviting sitting room alongside an adjacent kitchen, perfectly positioned to enjoy pleasant natural light. Also located to the front is the well-proportioned master bedroom, offering a comfortable and quiet private retreat. Toward the rear of the apartment, you will find a fitted family bathroom alongside a versatile second reception room. This dynamic multi-purpose space can easily be utilised as a home study, creative studio, or cosy evening snug, and features a striking wooden spiral staircase. Ascending this reveals a fantastic mezzanine-level bedroom, creating a wonderful sense of space and a private, elevated sleeping or guest area.
