OWNER'S INSIGHT

"Buying this flat five years ago was my first step into sole home ownership, and it has been a wonderful home. Not long after moving in I met my partner, and with our dog now part of the family, we've reached the exciting stage where it's time to find somewhere with more space. We'll miss living in St Marychurch, with its independent shops, beautiful coastal walks, beaches, and the golf club just a short stroll away. It's a fantastic place to call home. Links View is a small development of just five apartments, creating a friendly community. As one of two resident directors, I've worked alongside our professional managing agents to help keep the building running smoothly. The tandem parking for two cars, secure allocated storage and communal garden have all been invaluable. Leaving won't be easy, but it's the right time for our next chapter, and I hope the new owners will enjoy life at Links View as much as we have."

The Glowworm gas boiler is also housed here. The stylish shower room is fully tiled and fitted with a generous walk-in shower with rain head and body spray, vanity unit, WC, heated towel rail and obscure glazed window. Both the sitting room and double bedroom enjoy an easterly aspect overlooking the approach and communal gardens, with the flexibility to use either as the principal reception room or bedroom to suit your lifestyle.
