Plymouth is a city adjacent to one of the most natural harbours in the world. To the North is the Dartmoor National Park extending to over 300 square miles and which provides excellent recreational facilities. Plymouth itself has a population of well over 200, 000 and has a full range of shopping, educational and sporting facilities. There is mainline train service to London (Paddington) and to Penzance in West Cornwall. Plymouth has its own airport with flights to London (Gatwick) and other inland destinations. Brittany Ferries operates seasonal services from Plymouth to France and Northern Spain.
Amphi View was originally a modest, 1930's built detached bungalow, however, as result of two significant extensions that have been carried out by the current owners over more recent times, now delivers a spacious, family sized and versatile three storey double fronted detached house. Substantial attic and basement conversions have transformed the property which now provides five bedrooms, (the master bedroom benefitting from an en-suite shower room), a family bathroom, an open plan living room and dining room, a large fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a conservatory and cloakroom, an open plan play room and office area, along with the customary reception hall and landings. The house is equipped with PVCu double glazing and gas central heating and it is from the double glazed windows at the front of the property that the beautiful and uninterrupted views can best be enjoyed. The view includes the Plym Estuary, the River Plym and the rolling woods and countryside of Saltram. The views can also be enjoyed from the landscaped tiered garden which includes areas of balcony, sun terrace, level lawn and sloping lawns and shrubberies. The gardens are mature, planted with beech and silver birch trees that screen the property from the road whilst not, in any way, diminishing the view.
There is a bank of garden to the rear of the property which is kept wild, however, could provide important vehicular access to the rear, for which planning permission is in place. Internally, specifications include a large family bathroom which is fully tiled, with a Victorian style suite including a telephone style mixer tap/shower set, a fully tiled shower room, a contemporary cloakroom suite with vanity unit and a maple effect kitchen including integrated washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, Range style oven, hob and extractor fan. Casual dining space is catered for within the kitchen/breakfast room, as well as the formal dining area at one end of the living room which, like the kitchen, has an attractive bow bay window. Aside from the lovely view, the living room also features a solid fuel burner. The master bedroom is equipped with a range of mirror fronted wardrobes whilst bedrooms two and three also having fitted double wardrobes. A variety of floor coverings are used throughout the property including fitted carpets, solid oak flooring in the open plan play room and study and stripped pine floors in the kitchen/breakfast room and conservatory which opens out, via patio doors onto a timber balcony. Offering easy access to the A38 and the City Centre via the Embankment, this bespoke property needs to be viewed personally to be fully appreciated. There will be no onward chain.
