No3 Bay View Terrace

Full Description

OVERVIEW

Bay View Terrace is an attractive, south-facing period terrace of six houses, situated on the outskirts of Hugh Town, in an elevated position within easy walking distance of the town’s amenities, beaches and St Mary’s Harbour. A private path runs from the end of the terrace down to Porthmellon Beach - perfect for a swim or a sundowner drink.

No3 is a mid-terrace house, enjoying a private South-facing garden and off-street car parking. It offers flexible accommodation, with the option of a fourth self-contained ground floor bedroom. A rear chalet / store has conversion potential, subject to the necessary consents, as does the spacious attic. The property has uPVC double-glazing throughout.

Whilst the house is in need of a light scheme of refurbishment to achieve its full potential, it offers the prospective purchaser the opportunity to acquire a home of great character, having high ceilings, some original panelled doors and marble fireplace in the lounge.

Viewing highly recommended.
