Flats 1, 2 & 3, 70 Durnford Street, Plymouth, PL1

HINDHEAD PROPERTY Hindhead Property are delighted to bring to the market a truly rare and exciting opportunity to acquire 70 Durnford Street, a stunning Grade II Listed Georgian building arranged as two apartments and one spacious two storey maisonette, positioned just a two minute walk from Royal William Yard and enjoying sea views.

This is not a standard investment property. This is a landmark style period building with scale, character, income potential, outside space, parking and one of the most desirable lifestyle locations Plymouth has to offer. Beautifully set within a handsome Georgian terrace, the property immediately impresses with its elegant painted frontage, sash style windows, decorative architectural detailing and striking blue entrance, giving it a level of kerb appeal that stands apart from ordinary flat conversions.

Internally, the accommodation extends to approximately 2,854 sq ft in total and is arranged across basement, ground, first and second floor levels.

Apartment 1 forms an impressive two storey maisonette, offering generous accommodation across the basement and ground floor, with a spacious kitchen and dining room, separate lounge, WC, three bedrooms and bathroom. This gives the building a substantial principal unit with excellent rental appeal and a layout that feels more like a house than an apartment.

Apartment 2 occupies the first floor and provides a well proportioned one bedroom apartment with a large kitchen and dining room, bathroom and good sized bedroom.

Apartment 3 is positioned on the second floor and offers a further one bedroom apartment with lounge and dining room, kitchen area, shower room and far reaching sea views. The upper levels benefit from outlooks towards the waterfront, adding a genuine lifestyle element that will appeal strongly to tenants and future occupiers.

The outside space is another major feature. To the rear, the building enjoys a generous walled courtyard and garden area, with mature planting, stone walls and a sense of privacy that is rarely found with central period properties. For tenants, this offers valuable outdoor space. For investors, it adds another layer of appeal and helps set the property apart from more basic multi unit investments.

In addition, the property benefits from two off road parking spaces within a gated parking area, a major advantage in this part of the city and a valuable feature for both rental and resale demand.

For investors, the opportunity is clear. The building provides three separate rental units, multiple income streams, reduced reliance on one tenancy and the potential to review each apartment individually in respect of presentation, rents, specification and future improvement. With its combination of Georgian architecture, sea views, outside space, gated parking and immediate proximity to Royal William Yard, this is the kind of asset that offers far more than simple rental income alone.

The property is a substantial, character filled and highly attractive Grade II Listed Georgian building with genuine presence, strong lifestyle appeal and clear long term investment potential. Properties offering this combination of scale, location, sea views, gated parking, outside space and multiple income opportunities are rarely available, and early viewing is strongly recommended. 

DURNFORD STREET is widely regarded as one of Plymouth's most desirable and characterful addresses, famed for its elegant Georgian terraces, historic architecture and enviable position on the Stonehouse peninsula. Perfectly placed for the waterfront lifestyle, the property sits just moments from Royal William Yard, with its collection of restaurants, cafés, bars, galleries and waterside walks, while also enjoying easy access to the city centre, marinas and coastal outlooks. It is a location that blends history, lifestyle and convenience in a way few Plymouth streets can match, making it highly appealing to tenants, owner occupiers and long term investors alike. For buyers seeking a property with genuine prestige, rental demand and lifestyle pull, Durnford Street delivers the full package.
