A one bedroom ground floor flat in good order throughout with countryside glimpses and allocated parking.

Originally constructed as a large boat store, The Old Boathouse was thoughtfully converted many years ago to create a spacious, self contained ground floor apartment within a small block of purpose built flats dating from the 1980s. The property has been in the same ownership for the past 17 years and is presented to a very high standard throughout, offering well maintained and comfortable accommodation with glimpses of the surrounding countryside and the benefit of allocated parking.

The flat occupies a ground floor position set back from the road, enjoying an elevated setting approximately half a mile from the town centre and seafront. The location is particularly convenient, with the highly regarded Woodroffe Secondary School close by, along with a private health club, medical centre and both main route and local bus services.

The accommodation includes a generous living area, a well equipped kitchen and a modern shower room, with a staircase rising from the lounge to a mezzanine level. This upper area provides a useful snug or additional sleeping space, with access from here to the formal bedroom. The property would make an excellent primary residence or second home and is equally well suited to assured shorthold letting. We understand that holiday letting is not permitted. A uPVC front entrance door opens to the living room, a bright space with obscured double glazed windows to the front and side, radiator, understairs area and stairs rising to the mezzanine. The Worcester combi boiler is also located here. A small corridor leads to the inner hall, which includes a storage cupboard and doors to the shower room and kitchen.

The shower room is fitted with a modern suite comprising WC, pedestal basin, shower cubicle with thermostatic shower and tiled surrounds, vinyl flooring, extractor fan, shaver point and radiator. The kitchen is fitted with matching wall and base units, laminate worktops and an inset stainless steel sink with drainer. There is space for an oven with cooker hood above, undercounter fridge, washing machine and tumble dryer, along with undercounter lighting and vinyl flooring.

The mezzanine level provides a cosy snug area with radiator, and a door leads through to the bedroom, which includes a radiator and a fire escape door to the outside. The bed, bedside drawers, cupboard and chest of drawers may be included in the sale.

Outside, a tarmacadam driveway rises from the road to a parking area, where the flat benefits from an allocated space for one car.
