'Houndiscombe Villa', 2 St Lawrence Road,

Plymouth, Devon, PL4 6HN

THE PROPERTY

This impressive three storey spacious Victorian family home, built in 1885, is a substantial period building, with unique characteristics, retaining many impressive attractive original

architectural features offering generously proportioned accommodation, adaptable layout, and standing on a good size plot wit h delightful mature gardens which are walled and private to

the rear together with off street parking in a spacious double garage.

The property has a distinct 'WOW' factor retaining many original and period features, for example with original stained glass in the porch signed by the original maker, curved bay

windows incorporating curved glass, an impressive array of firep laces, wall mouldings and dresser units in the breakfast room. Original p laster coving, impressive hardwood floors,

panelling and fire surrounds. The exterior is typical Plymouth limestone with a slate roof and decorative ironwork design. There have only been thre e owners since 1942 and these linked

to the medical profession and the universities.

The property clearly p rovides an excellent spacious and flexible home for a large or extended family, but is equally potentially adaptable fo r other purposes, having in the past been a

Doctor’s Surgery.

LOCATION

of substantial stone faced Victorian terraced properties it lies a few minutes’ walk from Plymouth City Centre, the University, the Railway Station and a variety of other services and

amenities nearby including a choice of Primary and Secondary schools.
