Bosavern House

Full Description

GENERAL

Bosavern House is situated on the corner of Rams Valley and Buzza Street, in a popular part of Hugh Town, midway between Town Beach and Porthcressa Beach. 

The accommodation has been extended and improved over the years, including a new slate roof in 2021. A large kitchen / breakfast room is the heart of the house, with a self-contained bedroom suite to the rear opening onto the patio garden. Room sizes in the original cottage are generous with much character.

The property would be equally suitable as a main residence or for holiday letting.

The property is offered for sale complete with white goods and carpets & curtains as fitted. Furniture available by separate negotiation.

Viewing highly recommended.
