Flat 3, Kenwyn

Full Description

GENERAL

Kenwyn is situated on Church Street, a wide residential thoroughfare in the centre of Hugh Town. Forming part of Schiller Row (named after the German vessel which sank in 1875 on the infamous Retarrier Ledges), it was built in the Victorian era, originally as a private residence before being converted into self-catering apartments in the late 1980s.

No3 is situated on the first (mid) floor of the building, and offers well-proportioned accommodation with high-ceilings and good natural light throughout. It has excellent storage provision, period windows, skirting boards and architraves, and the benefit of a small South-facing seating area on the mid-level landing.

The property can be used as a main residence or second home. Business use is restricted under the terms of the lease. For sale complete with carpets and curtains as fitted.

Viewing highly recommended.
