15 Apsley Road, Plymouth, PL4 6AR

An outstanding three-bedroom apartment within the prestigious Royal Eye Infirmary, an exceptional Grade II listed landmark that has been meticulously restored to create one of Plymouth's most distinctive residential addresses.

Originally constructed in 1901 as the Royal Eye Infirmary, this remarkable building has been sympathetically transformed into an exclusive collection of just twelve individually designed residences. The conversion has been carefully executed to preserve the building's rich architectural heritage, while introducing the comfort, efficiency and sophistication expected of contemporary living.

This elegant penthouse apartment offers beautifully proportioned accommodation, where period character sits effortlessly alongside modern design. The impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space forms the heart of the home, providing a wonderful setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Expansive original windows flood the apartment with natural light,  whilst framing the attractive outlook across the communal grounds. Expansive bi-fold doors open effortlessly onto a private balcony, blurring the boundary between inside and out while creating an exceptional space for al fresco dining and entertaining. The apartment is further enhanced by a separate utility room and an adjoining store room, offering valuable practicality without compromising the elegance of the living space.

The accommodation extends to three generous double bedrooms, thoughtfully designed to offer both comfort and versatility. The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury of a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom, while a stylish shower room serves bedroom two. The third bedroom offers excellent flexibility as a guest suite, home office or additional reception space, depending on individual requirements.

Every element of the apartment has been carefully considered, with high-quality finishes and a contemporary specification complementing the building's timeless character.

Further benefits include two allocated off-road parking spaces, a secure video entry system, beautifully maintained communal gardens, an Architect's Certificate with approximately five years remaining, and the added advantage of a share of the freehold.

Set within attractive private grounds, the Royal Eye Infirmary enjoys a prime central position, perfectly placed for access to Mutley Plain, Plymouth Railway Station, Plymouth University and Central Park. Plymouth's vibrant city centre, the historic Barbican and the stunning waterfront of Plymouth Hoe are all within approximately two miles, offering an exceptional range of restaurants, independent cafés, cultural attractions and leisure facilities.

Rarely does the opportunity arise to acquire a residence of such architectural significance, where historic elegance has been so successfully combined with contemporary luxury. Offering an enviable balance of character, quality and convenience, this exceptional apartment represents a truly unique home within one of Plymouth's finest period conversions. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the calibre of accommodation on offer.
