Situation and Description	Overlooking one of the most spectacular and historic water fronts in the country the six properties comprising Catalina Villas were each designed to enjoy a slightly different aspect of the wonderful marine outlook over Plymouth Sound. Closed to the public in 1916 the spectacular Mount Batten Peninsula jutting out into the South Eastern corner of Plymouth Sound was taken over by the Ministry of Defence during the First World War as a base for the first sea planes. Mount Batten remained an RAF base until the early 1990's playing a vital role in the Second World War as home base of the famous Sunderland Flying Boats in addition to the less well known Catalina's.
.	In more recent years Mount Batten has been totally transformed, the peninsula now boasting a four hundred and fifty berth marina, chandlers, water sport and scuba diving centres together with excellent restaurants. A few minutes walk East will bring you to the quaint waterside village of Turnchapel with its narrow streets and village inns. A water taxi service links Mount Batten with Plymouth's historic Barbican, home to many artists, bistro's, café's and antique dealers. From here it is only a few minutes stroll to the city centre restaurants and theatres together with Plymouth's famous Hoe where Drake played bowls before defeating the Spanish Armada.
.	'Drake House' has been finished and fitted to an exceptionally high standard throughout with much use of oak flooring throughout. The spacious kitchen breakfast room which has an adjoining patio is fitted with bespoke units having solid oak timber working surfaces. The two luxury bathroom and en suite shower rooms have Villeroy and Boch pottery together with expensive Notique taps, showers and accessories. The spacious master bedroom suite, which is above the main sitting room, has an impressive, almost fully glazed gable end with double glazed, double doors opening onto its own balcony deck with recessed low level lighting. The lovely gardens have been beautifully landscaped and incorporate numerous sitting out areas including a partly covered patio immediately outside the glazed windows and doors of the sitting room.
