Trelawney

Full Description

DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION

Trelawney is situated on Church Street, a wide residential thoroughfare in the centre of Hugh Town. Forming part of Schiller Row, it was built in the Victorian era, originally as a grand private residence and latterly as a guest house, before being converted into self-catering apartments by the current owners in 2010.

The owner’s apartment is unusually spacious by local standards, having large kitchen / dining room, fitted to a high standard, with airy first floor lounge and en-suite bedroom, together with laundry / utility room, office area and downstairs cloaks.

The letting apartments are equipped to a good standard, with comfort and ease of use in mind. All have well-fitted kitchens, quality furniture including leather sofas and oak/leather dining suites, freeview TV in both lounge and bedroom, and entertainment systems. The property has hard-wired broadband throughout, with access points in each flat giving wi-fi throughout.

The property has been developed into a successful holiday lettings business, with 2018 low/high season tariffs for the 1-bedroom apartments ranging from £340 to £560 per week, and £290 to £480 per week for the studio. For further letting and promotional information on the holiday apartments, see: http://www.trelawney-ios.co.uk/Index.asp.

We understand the apartments typically produce a gross income of approximately £36,000 per annum. Audited accounts will be made available to serious interested parties who have viewed the property.

The property is to be sold fully furnished & equipped. Viewing highly recommended.
