North Road East, Mutley

SUMMARY ***Impressive Grade II Listed Townhouse in Desirable North Road East***
This magnificent property is more than just a home; it is a significant piece of Plymouth's architectural history, having been included in the Department for Culture, Media and Sport's revised list of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. Offering an enviable multi-story footprint and truly brimming with potential, this grand residence is now ready for a visionary owner to undertake a comprehensive, sympathetic refurbishment and restore it to its former grandeur. 

LOCATION The location on North Road East offers an enviable and unbeatable central position, providing a perfect balance between the peace of a historic residential area and immediate city connectivity.
Residents here benefit from superb transport links right on their doorstep. A short, level walk provides direct access to Plymouth Train Station, which offers mainline connections across the UK, making the property highly attractive to professionals and commuters. Furthermore, the area grants central convenience that few other locations can match. There is immediate and easy pedestrian access to the vast amenities of the nearby Mutley Plain area, which is known for its local shops, independent eateries, and essential services. Just beyond is the wider Plymouth City Centre, putting the best of the city within easy reach, including major retail outlets at Drake Circus shopping centre, cultural venues like the city's theatres, and the picturesque, vibrant waterfront with its historic Barbican. This location truly ensures that everything required for a busy urban lifestyle is effortlessly accessible. 

DESCRIPTION Stepping inside this grand residence, one is immediately struck by the sheer scale and immense potential waiting to be unlocked. The house proudly retains an impressive wealth of original features throughout, which speak to its distinguished heritage. These include striking details such as ornate plasterwork, elegant ceiling roses, and deep skirting boards-all classic hallmarks of its distinguished period. The impressive high ceilings are a definitive architectural feature, working to enhance the feeling of both space and natural light across all floors, an enduring characteristic of quality Georgian and Victorian design.

The voluminous accommodation is currently configured to offer expansive living quarters, spread generously over multiple levels. The layout currently incorporates seven total bedrooms, six of which are genuinely generously proportioned double bedrooms, ensuring extensive, flexible living space that is entirely suitable for even the largest of families. The seventh bedroom offers exceptional versatility; currently utilised as a secondary kitchenette/food prep area, it clearly highlights the property's potential for immediate multi-generational living or an adaptable layout for a high-yield investment model, such as an HMO (subject to necessary consents).

On the ground floor, two grand principal reception rooms are provided. These imposing spaces are ideal for separating modern family life, lending themselves perfectly to uses such as a formal living room, a dedicated library, a spacious study, or a formal dining hall. The functional heart of the home is completed by a practical fitted kitchen and a separate dedicated utility room located on the ground floor, offering a solid base for a complete custom redesign and modern fit-out. A key benefit enhancing the daily convenience of the property is the provision of a dedicated bathroom facility on each level, eliminating congestion and maximizing utility for all occupants across the extensive floorspace.
The property's exceptional size, prime central location, and inherent architectural character combine to make it perfectly suited for two distinct and highly rewarding buyer profiles.

For The Large Family Seeking a Forever Home, this is a truly once-in-a-lifetime chance to acquire a unique, historic residence in a prime central location and truly put their own contemporary stamp on it. The monumental scale of the rooms offers an unparalleled canvas for a custom interior design and modernisation project, which can be meticulously tailored to contemporary family life while consciously safeguarding the property's irreplaceable architectural details. This renovation will deliver a magnificent, bespoke family residence of significant prestige.

For The Astute Developer or Investor, the opportunity is equally compelling. Given the large footprint and highly sought-after location, the property holds significant potential for conversion into multiple self-contained apartments or, alternatively, high-end student accommodation (all subject to obtaining the necessary Listed Building Consent and Planning Permission). Its enviable proximity to the City Centre, Plymouth University campus, and Plymouth Train Station strategically positions it as an exceptionally attractive investment for securing a reliable, high-yield rental return in a constantly demanding market.
