DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION
Upper Jacksons is situated on Jacksons Hill, a private no-through road located on the outskirts of Hugh Town. It is just a short walk from the banks, shops, restaurants, public houses, Post Office, harbour and many other amenities the town offers, yet away from the noise associated with a town centre location.
Situated on the upper floor of a modern, detached property, Upper Jacksons enjoys sea and island views, bright & airy living space, full-width balcony and a delightful terraced garden, well-screened from its neighbours.
The property has electric heating and low-maintenance uPVC double glazing throughout. It is well-appointed internally, having attractive fitted kitchen, wood floors in all rooms and en-suite facilities. It has been used in recent years as a successful holiday letting property, but would be equally suitable as a main residence.
Viewing highly recommended.
