OVERVIEW
‘Rosevean’ is a substantial three-storey terraced Edwardian House located on Church Road, a short level walk from the centre of Hugh Town. The property has been sympathetically sub-divided into four flats arranged over the three floors. Flat 1 is located on the ground floor of the property.
The area is extremely popular with residents and visitors alike, due to its close proximity to the amenities of Hugh Town and the Harbour area. The flat is equally suitable as a permanent home or as a holiday letting apartment.
The flat enjoys good natural light throughout, with high ceilings typical of its era. It has private use of a paved patio to the front, and a useful understairs storage cupboard in the communal hallway. The windows have been replaced with modern, uPVC double glazed units.
In summary, a well-presented “turn key” property in a desirable location. Viewing recommended.
