GENERAL
The property is located on Sally Port, a quiet residential road within an elevated part of Hugh Town adjoining the historic Garrison walls, and therefore within close proximity to the many shops, restaurants, public houses, beaches, harbour and other amenities that the town offers.
No25 is situated within 25 metres of Porthcressa Beach, in an elevated position which affords wonderful sea views without any risk of coastal flooding.
It was extended in recent years, with the addition of a sun lounge opening onto a decked terrace. The accommodation has also been adapted internally to provide self-contained living for two generations of a family but would readily convert back into a single dwelling.
The property is in need of modernisation and internal remodelling to achieve its full potential, but would make a highly desirable, seafront family home. The property is fitted with low-maintenance uPVC double-glazing throughout.
With its huge potential and sea views, viewing is highly recommended.
