Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Plymouth, PL6 :
Occupying magnificent wooded grounds of just over half an acre, is this magnificent Grade II Listed slate hung Georgian manor house. Circa 1760, 'Powisland House' exudes much character commensurate with this era with features such as fireplaces, multi-paned windows, wooden floors, coved ceilings and dado rails. Sympathetic modernisation has included the installation of gas fired central heating, fabulous American oak fitted kitchen with granite work surfaces, a security system and we understand that the roof was re-slated in 2003.
The layout of the accommodation typifies a Georgian design and comprises a splendid glazed entrance porch, magnificent entrance hallway with wooden floor and original staircase and hand rail, a sitting room with dual aspect and a feature fireplace, a separate dining room also with a dual aspect and a fireplace feature, and a splendid kitchen/breakfast room which has a central island, walk-in larder, multi-fuel burner, a dual fuel Rangemaster and a stable door which provides access via a wrought iron staircase to the courtyard. There is also a utility, a shower room with original fireplace and a separate w.c.
On the first floor are five bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room, and the main family bathroom. The original servants quarters provide much storage and potential for development.
The property has a double garage, former 'coach house', with an adjoining tool shed which is situated just off the Mediterranean style courtyard which enjoys a southerly and westerly, and therefore sunny aspect.
There is a splendid and particularly versatile 'stable' which has a hayloft. This could be converted for office use, annexe, workshop, studio, etc. (subject to the usual Planning consents).
The magnificent front gardens comprise large sweeping lawns and are well stocked and bordered with a wide variety of splendid trees and bushes including a camellia tree and azalea bed. The Mediterranean courtyard is sheltered and a splendid feature with fig tree, raspberries and rhubarb.
The driveway from Tavistock Road sweeps down past the front of the property and onto the rear. There is parking for many cars.
The excellent range of local facilities include easy access to Dartmoor National Park, the 'Park and Ride' transport facility to the City centre which is some five miles distant, the Tesco Superstore and various pubs, shops and schools.
AGENTS NOTE: This is indeed a rare opportunity to acquire an exquisite and fine Georgian home.
