Situated in the heart of Plymouth’s historic Barbican, this beautifully presented one-bedroom top-floor apartment offers a fantastic opportunity for investors looking to acquire a ready-made investment in one of the city’s most desirable and characterful locations. Positioned on the third floor of a purpose-built development, the apartment combines contemporary accommodation with the considerable benefit of secure, allocated covered parking, a particularly rare and valuable feature within the Barbican.
The building is accessed via a communal entrance, with both stair and lift access available to the top floor. Upon entering the apartment, a welcoming hallway provides access to all of the accommodation and incorporates a particularly useful large storage cupboard.
The main living accommodation comprises a bright and stylish open-plan living, dining and kitchen area. The kitchen is positioned to the rear and has been fitted with an attractive range of dark contemporary units, contrasting work surfaces and metro-style tiled splashbacks. There is an integrated oven and electric hob together with additional space and plumbing for appliances.
The living area provides ample room for both comfortable seating and dining furniture, making excellent use of the open-plan layout. A large double-glazed window to the front elevation allows plenty of natural light into the room and benefits from the afternoon sun, creating a bright and welcoming space.
The double bedroom is well proportioned with plenty of room for a double bed and additional bedroom furniture. A double-glazed window to the front elevation again allows the room to benefit from the afternoon light.
Completing the accommodation is the well-appointed bathroom, fitted with a panelled bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC. Contemporary metro-style tiling provides a smart finish and complements the modern presentation found throughout the apartment.
Externally, one of the property’s most notable advantages is its allocated parking space within a secure gated car park. The numbered space is covered, providing convenient off-road parking in an area where private parking can be particularly difficult to find. Each apartment also benefits from its own large lockable external storage cupboard, ideal for bicycles, outdoor equipment or general additional storage.
The location is a major attraction, with Stokes Lane tucked within the historic Barbican, placing an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, traditional pubs, shops and waterfront attractions within easy walking distance. The picturesque Sutton Harbour waterfront and cobbled streets of the Barbican are moments away, while Plymouth Hoe, the city centre and Drake Circus Shopping Centre are also readily accessible.
For investors, the central position provides convenient access to many of Plymouth’s major employment, leisure and educational destinations, while the combination of a lift, secure parking and modern accommodation further enhances the property’s appeal as a rental investment.
The property is being offered for sale as an investment purchase with a tenant in situ. The current tenant is due to vacate; however, a new tenant will subsequently be taking occupation, allowing the property to continue as a tenanted investment for the incoming purchaser. Further information regarding the new tenancy and rental arrangements can be provided by our sales team.
Offering an excellent combination of location, contemporary accommodation, secure covered parking and an ongoing tenancy, Flat 12 represents an attractive opportunity for investors seeking a conveniently positioned property in the heart of Plymouth’s historic Barbican.
