Delgany Villas, Derriford, Plymouth, Pl6 8Ag -

Summary - Situated on a little-known private drive off Tavistock Road serving only 8 properties, Delgany Villas form a terrace of four late-Victorian villas built circa 1896. The quiet, almost rural feeling position with an

A generously-proportioned, light and airy home, retaining an attractive array of characterful and original features together with modern conveniences. The property also benefits from a large circa 1930s garage with adjoining modern-built, centrally heated and double glazed studio room/office with wraparound mezzanine floor which offers potential for conversion.

The accommodation is laid out over 2 storeys and briefly comprises, large hall and reception room with marble fireplace. A wide shallow tread staircase rises to the first floor. Spacious dining room with French doors to the front and fireplace, a generous-size sitting room with Minster fireplace and French doors to front. Downstairs wc.

At first floor level, a half landing and main landing provide access to 4 large double bedrooms, a well appointed shower room with Portuguese marble and Mira electric shower and a well-appointed bathroom. There is access to a large loft over, which is part-floored and insulated.
