SUMMARY ***ELEGANT ONE-BED LOWER GROUND FLOOR GARDEN FLAT SET WITHIN A CONVERTED EDWARDIAN VILLA***

This spacious one-bedroom garden flat on Houndiscombe Road is set within a beautiful Victorian villa and boasts period charm, a private entrance, sun room, rear garden, and two basement rooms. Ideally located in Mutley, it's perfect for professionals seeking style and convenience. 

LOCATION Houndiscombe Road is ideally situated in the heart of Mutley, one of Plymouth's most vibrant and well-connected residential areas. Just a short stroll from Mutley Plain, residents have easy access to a wide range of amenities including supermarkets, cafés, pubs, takeaways, independent shops, and local services. The area is also well-served by public transport, with regular bus routes running into the City Centre, Plymouth University, and beyond, making it especially popular with professionals, students, and commuters alike.

The location offers the perfect balance between convenience and community. Plymouth City Centre, the main train station, and the historic Hoe are all within walking distance, while Central Park, one of the city's largest green spaces, is also nearby - ideal for leisure, exercise, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Houndiscombe Road's mix of Victorian architecture and tree-lined streets adds to its character, making it a sought-after address for those looking to enjoy city living with a neighbourhood feel. 

DESCRIPTION This beautifully presented lower ground floor flat is set within an elegant converted Victorian villa and offers a rare blend of period charm, generous space, and private outdoor living. Located in the ever-popular area of Mutley, just a short distance from the City Centre and local amenities, this one-bedroom garden flat is ideal for a professional tenant or couple seeking comfort, character, and convenience.

The flat is accessed via its own private entrance and opens into a spacious, well-maintained interior. At the heart of the home is a generous kitchen and dining area, complete with a range of fitted wall and base units, integrated oven and hob, space for a dining table, and plumbing for a washing machine.

A uPVC double glazed door from the kitchen leads into a light-filled sun room - a peaceful space that offers a lovely transition between the indoors and the garden. Perfect as a spot to relax or enjoy a morning coffee, the sun room opens out to the private rear garden, a true highlight of the property.

The living room is full of character, with traditional ceiling mouldings, a decorative fireplace, and a large uPVC window bringing in plenty of natural light. It's a warm and inviting space that lends itself well to relaxing or entertaining.

To the rear of the flat, the double bedroom is spacious and quiet, featuring a fitted wardrobe, radiator, and views over the garden.

The large bathroom is well-equipped with a full-sized bath and shower over, wash hand basin with built-in storage, low-level WC, a heated towel rail, and stylish laminated flooring.

Another key feature of this home is the versatile basement room, both with power and lighting, providing ample storage space or potential for use as a hobby area or workspace.

Outside, the expansive rear garden offers a tranquil retreat with far-reaching views. It's a rare find in this location and ideal for tenants who value outdoor space. Beyond the garden, there is access to an off-road parking area, a highly practical bonus in this busy and desirable neighbourhood.

The flat benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout. Its location places it within easy reach of Plymouth City Centre, the University, train station, and excellent transport links, making it a convenient and appealing rental choice.
