Summary ***Charming 3-Storey Grade II Listed Character Home with Private Courtyard Access, South-Facing Garden & Useful Outbuildings***
location Today, the Barbican has transformed into a vibrant cultural quarter where heritage meets a bustling modern lifestyle. The old warehouses and storefronts are packed with unique independent boutiques, vintage shops, craft galleries, and antique centres. The area also boasts a thriving arts community, with local galleries showcasing the work of South West painters, glassblowers, and ceramicists. Along the waterfront, the area is alive with alfresco dining, where you will find everything from traditional harborside pubs serving local ales to award-winning seafood restaurants offering the daily catch straight from the local fisheries. Whether you are enjoying a classic portion of fish and chips on the harbour wall, tracing the steps of the Pilgrims, or exploring the tucked-away courtyards, the Barbican offers a captivating sensory experience that captures the true essence of Britain's Ocean City.
Description This unique Grade II listed, two-bedroom character property is arranged over three distinct storeys, offering a versatile layout that blends historic architectural charm with practical living spaces. Entry to the property is gained via a secure, locked external door that opens into a private, fully covered side corridor. This enclosed walkway serves as a central artery for the ground floor, providing discrete, direct access to the main lounge, the rear garden, and a rear entrance porch. The kitchen space is equipped with a range of contemporary white high-gloss cabinetry, complemented by a neutral colour palette and a suite of integrated appliances, including an electric oven, a gas hob with a matching extractor hood above, an under-counter dishwasher, and a freestanding fridge/freezer. There is also sufficient floor space within the kitchen to comfortably accommodate a small dining table and chairs for everyday meals.
Situated directly across the covered corridor is the separate lounge, a cosy reception room featuring neutral decor, fitted carpeting, and a notable original feature fireplace that serves as the room's central focal point. Moving to the upper levels, the first floor accommodates two generously proportioned double bedrooms. Both of these bedrooms continue the property's theme of neutral decoration and fitted carpeting. Escalating to the top floor, you will find a primary family bathroom equipped with a standard three-piece suite, comprising a low-level WC, a pedestal washbasin, and a panelled bath with an overhead shower attachment. Positioned directly opposite the bathroom is a substantial, partially boarded loft and storage space, which offers excellent, easily accessible storage capacity. Externally, the property benefits from a low-maintenance, south-facing rear garden which is laid primarily to gravel. This outdoor space is enhanced by three separate brick or timber outbuildings; these structures have been highly functionalized to serve as a secondary outdoor WC, a dedicated utility and laundry space housing the washer/dryer, and a third unit designated entirely for general garden storage.
