Property description
Palace Vaults is home to this beautifully unique penthouse apartment, located away from the hustle and bustle of Plymouth's historic Barbican. Spanning over 3000 Sqft, its wonderful open plan layout is the ultimate space to entertain, with two Juliet balconies facing towards The National Marine Aquarium, Plymouth Sound and beyond.
The Penthouse is an impressive apartment occupying the top floor of a beautiful Grade II listed building, dating back to the early 19th Century. Palace Vaults is located in the heart of the Barbican, conveniently nestled amongst its maze of historic cobbled streets. The Barbican is a vibrant waterside community, with an eclectic range of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars to enjoy. It is also just a stone’s throw away from Plymouth City Centre, the Drake Circus shopping mall and the Barcode complex, as well as iconic cultural venues such as Plymouth Hoe, the Box and the Theatre Royal.
From the building entrance, there is level access to a lift, which provides direct, private access to the Penthouse, opening into an entrance hall and through into the apartment itself. An entrance corridor leads to a relaxation area which takes in spectacular views over Sutton Harbour and towards Dartmoor. There is an impressive kitchen offering a range of high gloss fronted units. The dining area immediately adjacent to the kitchen provides a relaxed area to entertain.
The large sitting room offers a living space dominated by a spectacular vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses, three skylight windows allowing ample light and a dual aspect view of Sutton Harbour and the Elizabethan Gardens. A second seating area immediately off the sitting room provides a delightful space to listen to music, read or drink a glass of wine, while looking out through French doors opening to a small balcony with a delightful harbour view. Stairs in the reception rise to the mezzanine and studio.
From the galleried landing overlooking the sitting room and reception, there is a mezzanine area which is currently used as a family room. There is a further studio style bedroom accessed from the galleried landing which has two Velux windows and an en-suite bathroom. This space is currently used as a bedroom but offers a variety of other uses, such as a home office or gym. Throughout the mezzanine level, there are exposed trusses, ample eaves storage and cupboards.
The master bedroom suite again offers character and size with a number of exposed beams and ample space for wardrobes. The en-suite bathroom is extremely spacious, incorporating a full suite. There are two further double bedrooms which are ideal either for family or guests. These bedrooms and the main family bathroom overlook either Sutton Harbour or the Elizabethan Gardens.
In addition, the Penthouse benefits from its own dedicated parking space in the building’s lane. All residents are also entitled to benefit from the Residents’ Parking Permit Scheme. In short, the Penthouse offers a unique combination of spacious, peaceful living, while being situated at the heart of a vibrant waterfront community.
