SUMMARY *Situated in the heart of the vibrant and popular community of Ford, Plymouth, this commanding period terrace stands as a testament to the grand proportions of its era.*
LOCATION Located in the heart of Ford, Melville Road is a perennially popular choice for buyers, known for its grand period architecture and its proximity to the naval dockyard, local schools, and the green spaces of St Levans Park. This particular residence stands out for its sheer scale, offering an internal footprint that far exceeds the average for the area.
DESCRIPTION Beyond its traditional facade lies a home of remarkable scale and surprising depth, unfolding over four meticulously arranged floors. This is a residence that refuses to be defined by a standard layout, instead offering a level of versatility and adaptable living space that is increasingly rare in today's market, making it an ideal proposition for multi-generational families or those who require a sophisticated home-and-work balance.
The journey begins on the ground floor, where a welcoming entrance hallway retains the sense of Victorian grandeur with its high ceilings and elegant proportions. Leading off this central hallway are two magnificent reception rooms. These light-filled spaces serve as the formal heart of the home, featuring large windows that invite an abundance of natural light. Whether utilised as a stately lounge for evening relaxation and a dedicated formal dining room for entertaining, or perhaps reimagined as a library and a sprawling home office, these rooms offer a flexible canvas to suit any lifestyle.
Descending to the lower ground floor, the property transitions into a highly functional and social hub that is perfectly designed for the ebb and flow of modern family life. This level acts as the engine room of the home, housing a spacious kitchen and breakfast room where morning coffee can be enjoyed overlooking the grounds. Adjacent to this is a practical utility room, ensuring that the domestic side of life is kept tucked away from the main living areas, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom. Furthermore, this floor features a charming snug; a quiet retreat that, given its generous size, could easily function as a fifth or even sixth bedroom, providing a private space for guests or teenagers. Crucially, this level provides a seamless transition to the outdoors, with direct access leading out into the expansive rear garden.
The sleeping quarters are spread across the upper levels, ensuring a sense of peace and privacy. The first floor is home to two substantial double bedrooms, both of which feel airy and restful, offering plenty of space for large wardrobes and additional furniture. Moving to the final level, the top floor reveals a truly impressive dual-aspect bedroom that serves as a spectacular principal suite or a creative studio. Flooded with light from both sides, this expansive room is served by its own dedicated shower room. A unique and highly advantageous feature of this top floor is the presence of two separate entrance doors from the landing; this clever architectural quirk means the space could be effortlessly partitioned to create two distinct bedrooms, should the new owners wish to maximize the property's footprint even further.
The external attributes of this home are just as noteworthy as the interior. The rear garden is an exceptional feature for a property in such a central urban location, offering an expansive lawn and patio area that stretches down toward a secure rear access lane. This outdoor sanctuary provides ample room for gardening enthusiasts, safe play areas for children, or grand-scale summer entertaining. Tucked away at the foot of the garden is a substantial workshop, a dream for the hobbyist, DIY enthusiast, or those simply requiring significant additional storage. This property is far more than just a terraced house; it is a sprawling, adaptable, and characterful home that promises to evolve alongside the needs of its inhabitants for years to come.
