SUMMARY *STUNNING EDWARDIAN RESIDENCE IN A SOUGHT AFTER AREA*
This charming period property on Western College Road beautifully combines space and history in the highly sought-after location of Mannamead, Plymouth.
LOCATION Western College Road is a highly desirable area that offers the perfect blend of suburban tranquility and city convenience. The location provides excellent access to public transport, with numerous bus routes on nearby Mutley Plain providing easy connections across Plymouth and beyond.
Mutley Plain is just a short walk away, acting as a vibrant hub of local amenities. Here, you'll find a wide selection of shops, cafes, and leisure options, from independent boutiques and popular eateries to grocery stores and other essential services. This bustling high street ensures that everything you need for daily life is within easy reach. The area is also well-regarded for its proximity to a number of reputable schools, making it an excellent choice for families.
DESCRIPTION Enter through a welcoming porch into a grand reception hall, a truly spectacular introduction to this home. The space immediately showcases a wealth of elegant Edwardian features, where timeless character meets modern potential. Impressively high ceilings create an open, airy feel, while intricate carvings adorn the staircase and doorways, speaking to the property's rich history. Geometric stained glass windows catch the light, casting beautiful colours across the hall, and the stunning staircase, with its detailed spindles, stands as a magnificent centrepiece.
The architectural charm continues into the spacious family lounge-an ideal space to relax and unwind, whether you're hosting guests or enjoying a quiet evening in. Adjacent to the lounge is a generously sized, separate dining room. This versatile space offers a perfect setting for formal dinner parties but also provides the flexibility to be easily converted into a home office, a children's playroom, or an additional reception room to suit a modern family's needs.
At the rear of the home, the kitchen and breakfast room form the heart of the house, offering a functional space for daily life. They are accompanied by a practical utility area and a convenient ground-floor bathroom with a shower. From here, a doorway leads out to a private and well-maintained courtyard garden. This urban oasis is perfect for quiet moments with a book, enjoying an al fresco meal, or entertaining friends and family in the summer months.
Upstairs, the first floor is home to five generously sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC, providing ample space for a large or growing family. One of the bedrooms presents a unique and valuable feature, as it is currently fit out with a secondary kitchen. This setup is a remnant from the property's time as a multi-generational home. The existing shell remains, offering a rare opportunity to reinstate a second kitchen, ideal for a self-contained annex, or to easily convert it back into a traditional sixth bedroom.
Subject to the necessary planning permissions (SSTP), the property presents an excellent opportunity to be converted into two self-contained flats, making it ideal for investors seeking a strong rental yield or buyers looking for flexible living arrangements, such as a separate dwelling for a family member.
With generous proportions, magnificent original period details, and significant scope for personalisation or renovation, this chain-free home is an ideal opportunity for buyers looking to make their mark on a truly special character property. Don't miss your chance to turn this beautiful house into your dream home.
The property is currently registered as two separate dwellings with the Valuation Office and utility providers, each assessed under Council Tax Band B. This classification would be subject to revaluation upon purchase as a single residence.
