No4 Porthcressa Terrace

Full Description

OVERVIEW

Porthcressa Terrace is situated in a quiet position on the edge of Hugh Town, just 50 metres from ever-popular Porthcressa Beach and a short level walk form the town centre amenities. It comprises just four houses of distinctive design, enjoying a Westerly aspect. The four houses comprising the terrace are linked via a concrete walkway, beyond and below which are the front gardens.

The present owners embarked on a refurbishment and re-modelling of the accommodation but as a result of a move to the mainland for employment reasons the property is now offered for sale part-completed. A summary of completed works, and materials on site, is included below.

The property also has planning permission for further extension; again, details are included below.

Viewing recommended.
