This very attractive Grade II Listed two storey property forms part of a
notable late 18th Century town house which is now home to five private
residences, each unique in their layout and design. On entering, you are
immediately struck by the apartment’s stylish elegance, and as you explore
further, you find a “wow” around every corner. The high ceiling, character
features and light in the main reception room, beautiful country style
kitchen, high spec bathrooms and luxury principal bedroom suite all combine to
offer something really special.
Although all of the many amenities in this thriving town are within walking
distance, there is a single en - bloc garage where you can keep a car for
exploration of the glorious surrounding countryside, villages and coast, which
is only a short drive away. This property also benefits from a private garden
area with shed. Whilst this property makes a wonderful permanent home, it
would also make an ideal second home or “lock up and leave” property. Viewing
is highly recommended to appreciate all this unique apartment has to offer.
