Description

This delightful mid terrace Victorian property provides deceptively spacious 3 bedroom accommodation over 3 floors. The position, close to the town centre yet away from the hubbub of the busiest roads, is good for both those with families and those looking for a second home/investment. The property has been fully modernized throughout by the vendors in their ownership including amongst others the fitting of new kitchen and bathroom suites, and a recently fitted Worcester boiler. The property has operated as a very successful commercial holiday home and the majority of the contents is included in the sale although it is currently used as a home. There is on street parking immediately outside the property and has been mentioned the town centre, harbour-side and all town's amenities are just a short walk away.
