Description

OFFERS IN EXCESS OF £230,000 A rare opportunity to acquire a characterful two double bedroom seafront apartment, set within one of Plymouth's most iconic Grade II listed Georgian terraces on The Hoe, enjoying outstanding views across Plymouth Sound and towards Drake's Island.

Positioned on the second floor and set slightly back from the water's edge, the apartment combines elevated sea views with a peaceful setting, while remaining just a short walk from Plymouth Hoe and approximately one mile from Drake Circus and the city centre.

The building dates back to circa 1835 and retains beautiful period proportions and architectural character throughout. The apartment itself offers a well balanced layout extending to approximately 55 sq m (591 sq ft), with two genuine double bedrooms, a bright and welcoming lounge, a separate fitted kitchen, and a well appointed bathroom.

The lounge is a particular highlight, featuring wood flooring, a character fireplace, and a large sash window that perfectly frames the sea view, creating a light filled and atmospheric living space. Both bedrooms are well proportioned doubles, with the principal bedroom also benefiting from built in wardrobes and a continuation of the impressive outlook.

The kitchen is neatly arranged and practical, fitted with a range of units and contrasting tiled splashbacks, while the bathroom offers a clean, classic finish with a full size bath and shower over.

Externally, residents enjoy access to a large, beautifully maintained gated communal lawn garden, a truly special feature and an ideal place to relax or enjoy Plymouth's famous waterfront events, including the annual fireworks and Armed Forces displays, all with the Sound as your backdrop.

Tenure and management
The property is leasehold with a share of the freehold, owning one fifth of the freehold via a residents' management company, 33 Grande Parade Limited. The lease has approximately 974 years remaining. There is no fixed ground rent. Ongoing costs are kept refreshingly sensible and are shared proportionately between the five owners. Recent costs (April to September 2025) included approximately £29.31 for grass cutting, £58.51 for communal electricity, and £370 for building insurance. There are no major works planned.

Services and practicalities
The apartment is connected to mains gas, electricity, water, and drainage. Heating is via a boiler system. The EPC rating is C, noting that the Grade II listed status may affect certain energy efficiency improvements. The property has been well maintained, with no known issues relating to damp, roof, or structure.

Parking
Resident on street parking is available via Plymouth City Council permit schemes, with visitor permits also available.

Additional information

Welcome to Hindhead Property

At Hindhead, we're not your typical estate agent; in fact, we wouldn't really say we are estate agents—labels aren't our thing! We're a vibrant, forward-thinking, and passionate group of individuals who own, manage, buy, sell, and invest in Plymouth.

Since our opening in early 2015, we've achieved remarkable success through our ethos of giving you the same advice we'd give our loved ones. Sometimes, this means brutal honesty, and sometimes, it means helping you every step of the way.

Family life, affordability, and honesty are the cornerstones of our philosophy. Naturally, we are committed to keeping it local and fostering partnerships with fellow family-run Plymouth businesses to ensure our customers get the value and service they deserve.

Our mission

Our mission is to provide wisdom akin to a trusted parent, affordability that eases your journey, and, simply put, to do our job and do it well! If that's not enough for you, we will beat any like-for-like sales or letting fee!

Our office

After trading successfully for just under a year from the Genesis building, in Plymouth, we decided to jump with both feet into the renovation of our new flagship Mannamead office.
