A walkway bridge allows a level access as if the apartment is at ground floor level. A door leads into a communal hallway which is shared only between Flats Four and Five. Apartment Four’s entrance door leads into a hall with doors to the open plan living room, bedrooms at the rear of the property, and the shower room. The living room is spacious, light and airy, having a zone for a dining table and to one side sits a modern open plan kitchen with integrated appliances. There is a balcony leading off with room to sit and enjoy the stunning panoramic views.
The private freehold garden is for the sole use of Apartment Four only and located to one side of the complex. This garden offers its own idyllic sanctuary for peace and seclusion and to relax and enjoy the inspiring views that have to be experienced to fully appreciate. The detached garden room has planning permission and comprises a Studio / Garden Room and Shower Room / WC. A hot tub and garden seat are positioned perfectly for privacy providing the optimum vantage point to admire the exceptional views.
The Views
The captivating views encompass the Percuil River, Summers Beach, St Anthony National Trust Headland, St Mawes Harbour, across Falmouth Bay to the Lizard Peninsula, St Mawes and Pendennis Castles, and miles of open sea. For much of the year there is a grandstand view of a variety of fascinating sailing and other marine activity.
Summary
The apartment and its garden are equally suitable as either a permanent or holiday home. For the privacy and quietness of the Pen Eglos homeowners, the lease restricts the apartments from being commercially holiday let. Offered with no onward chain, an early appointment to view this rare opportunity is unhesitatingly recommended.
