Hanjague

Full Description

GENERAL
Hanjague, named after the imposing granite islet on the Eastern approaches to Scilly, is situated on Rocky Hill in an elevated position approximately three-quarters of a mile from Hugh Town. It adjoins Sunnyside Flower Farm.

It traded for many years as a small country house hotel, but in recent years has been used as a private residence and holiday let. It was partially refurbished some years ago, with the addition of stylish en-suite shower rooms to the four bedrooms (all fitted to the same specification), a new kitchen and landscaping of the gardens. It is truly a gardener’s paradise, with extensive grounds filled with mature shrubs, flowers and plants.

To the side of the property is a separate plot of land, well screened by high hedging, having its own gated access out onto Rocky Hill. Subject to the necessary consents we suggest the land has clear development potential.

The house itself has generous ceiling heights, with an attic space suitable for further conversion.

It is currently used as a holiday let, achieving low / high season tariffs of £1,880 / £3,200 per week. Accounts will be made available to serious interested purchasers who have view the property. Letting details can be viewed at: https://www.stmarysselfcatering.co.uk/

The property is now offered for sale fully furnished & equipped. With its extensive accommodation, great location and beautiful gardens, we have no hesitation in recommending an early viewing of this highly attractive property.
