Flat 4, Kenwyn

Full Description

DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION

Kenwyn is situated on Church Street, a wide residential thoroughfare in the centre of Hugh Town. Forming part of Schiller Row (named after the German vessel which sank in 1875 on the infamous Retarrier Ledges), it was built in the Victorian era, originally as a private residence before being converted into self-catering apartments in the late 1980s.

No4 is situated on the second (top) floor of the building, and offers interesting dual-aspect accommodation, with views across the rooftops to St Marys Harbour and Porthcressa Bay. 

The property can be used as a main residence or second home. Business use is restricted under the terms of the lease.

For sale fully furnished & equipped, complete with carpets and curtains as fitted. Viewing highly recommended.
