Description

Presented to the market, this exceptional penthouse apartment occupies a privileged position within the prestigious Sutton High Apartments, formerly Sutton High School for Boys, a distinguished grammar school reimagined into 38 luxury residences.

living experience, combining architectural heritage with modern luxury. With panoramic views stretching across Plymouth Sound, Mount Batten, the Marina, Plymouth Hoe, and the Citadel, this is an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a home in one of Plymouth’s most desirable and historic settings. The apartment benefits from two private parking spaces within a secure gated complex and has served as a cherished family home, residential let, and high performing holiday rental, offering flexibility and broad appeal to a range of buyers.

Arranged over three expansive floors, with underfloor heating throughout, the property is presented to an impeccable standard, blending elegant décor with a spacious, light -filled layout. Upon entering, a welcoming hallway with ample built -in storage and a cloakroom/WC lead into a stunning open -plan living area. Beautiful sash windows flood the space with natural light, while plush carpets and quality flooring enhance the sense of warmth and comfort. From here, take in sweeping views across Plymouth Sound, a truly captivating backdrop for daily living. The contemporary kitchen is fully fitted with integrated appliances and completed with polished granite worktops, offering both functionality and style.
