Flat One Spanish Ledge

Full Description

DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION

Spanish Ledge is an attractive, granite-built property, comprising a pair of substantial terraced houses. Originally run as a guest house, the property was converted into holiday flats some years ago.

It is centrally situated within Hugh Town, St Mary’s tiny “capital”, and is therefore well located for the shops, banks, Post Office, public houses, restaurants and many other amenities the town offers. Town Beach, Porthcressa Beach and St Mary’s Harbour are all within a short distance of the property.

Apartment No1 is situated on the first floor of the building, with access from both Silver Street and The Parade. Whilst permanent occupation is allowed, it has been successfully run as a holiday let for many years, holding a Three Star Grading, with weekly tariffs ranging from £300 (low season) to £630 (high season). Occupancy rates typically extend to 25-29 weeks per annum, with 20 weeks pre-booked for 2021. The benefit of future bookings / reservation will be transferred with the property, as will all furniture, fixtures and fittings.

Viewing recommended.
