LOCATION Palace Vaults is a charming historic building situated on New Street in the heart of The Barbican, Plymouth. Known for its character and unique architectural features, Palace Vaults is ideally located in one of Plymouth's most vibrant areas, filled with cobbled streets, waterside views, and a rich maritime history. The Barbican offers a lively blend of shops, galleries, cafes, and restaurants, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists. Palace Vaults combines the charm of historical Plymouth with the conveniences of modern living, providing a distinctive experience in one of the city's most iconic districts. 

DESCRIPTION The property is accessed via a private, gated side street off New Street, leading to the beautifully converted Palace Vaults building, which consists of eight exclusive apartments. The entrance to the apartment is through this side street, where residents benefit from a secure intercom system that can be linked directly to a personal mobile phone or landline for convenient access. Located on the first floor, the apartment can be reached by either a communal staircase or a lift.

Inside, the apartment features a well-proportioned layout, including a double bedroom, a comfortable sitting room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a bathroom. The property is carpeted throughout, providing a warm and inviting atmosphere, with views from the windows overlooking the private gardens below and the adjacent public Elizabethan Gardens, adding a picturesque touch to the home.

The kitchen is designed with white cabinetry and is equipped with modern appliances, including an electric oven, hob, washer-dryer, and an upright fridge-freezer. Linoleum flooring and blue-tiled splashbacks above the work surfaces add to the room's practicality and style.

At the heart of the apartment, the sitting room exudes character, featuring period beams and views of the gardens. Furnished with a leather-effect sofa, this space is perfect for relaxation and entertaining.

The double bedroom, situated at the rear of the property, includes a comfortable double bed, pine furniture, storage cupboards, a wardrobe, a trunk, and chests of drawers. The room is enhanced by a heavily beamed ceiling, adding a touch of historic charm.
