Local Area
The Mountbatten peninsula is situated on the Eastern shore of
Plymouth Sound, and next to the mouth of the river Plym. The
approximately 4 miles long and wide Plymouth Sound is famous for
being one of the best natural harbours in the country, and hosts
several national and international sailing events. It is now also a
National Marine Park and conservation area.
Many leisure facilities are within a short walking distance,
including a beach, local gym, fitness centre and swimming pool,
Yacht Haven Marina, two pubs in the quaint village of Turnchapel,
and a wide range of water sports can be found at the Mount Batten
Water Sports Centre. There is also a regular water taxi service
across to the historic Barbican waterfront, where there are a
selection of restaurants, shops and pubs. From the Barbican, the
city centre shops are only a 12 minute (half a mile) walk.
There is also a regular bus service from the entrance of Durwent
Close, going to the Broadway Shopping centre in Plymstock, and then
onwards to Plymouth city centre. From here, Plymouth Station has a
direct train service to Paddington.
Description
Durwent Close is a secluded, late 1990's development of just 29
detached properties, situated on a cul-de-sac loop within the
Mountbatten peninsula.
Number 29 is situated on the western side of the loop, enjoying
some of the best panoramic views of Plymouth Sound with Cornwall
beyond, Drake's Island, the city's waterfront (including the iconic
Plymouth Hoe), and distant views of Dartmoor to the east.
The property benefits from mains gas central heating with a
modern condensing boiler, and an inset feature gas fire in the
living room. The windows to all the main rooms are triple-glazed,
with double glazing in the conservatory and a large front
porch.
The second-floor attic conversion provides flexible
accommodation. Although currently used as a guest bedroom, it could
equally make a wonderful additional reception room, having stunning
dual aspects, and far-reaching views, including towards Cornwall
and Dartmoor.
The attached garage provides the possibility for an easy
conversion into extra living space, or even for a two-storey
extension, subject to the necessary planning permission. In
addition, the ample-sized rear garden would allow space for an
extension to the rear, again subject to the required consent. To
the front of the property, the existing lawn area has the potential
for boat, campervan or caravan storage - in addition to the two-car
driveway.
