Description
This TWO BEDROOM APARTMENT is situated to the first floor of this attractive purpose-built development set within spacious manicured communal gardens and enjoying open views across to the wooded Lincombes hillside, as well as some sea and coastal views across Meadfoot. Providing well-proportioned living space, enjoying two reception rooms and two double bedrooms, the apartment would now benefit from a programme of enhancement and improvement but has been priced to reflect the level of updating required and provides an ideal opportunity for any new owners to inject their own taste and style into their new home. A private southerly facing paved patio and single garage are further attributes offered.
‘Meadwood’ is enviably positioned close to Meadfoot Beach, being a haven for water sports, including kayaking, scuba diving, fishing and sailing. A host of amenities are also easily accessible nearby with Wellswood village providing bistro restaurants, pub and parade of local shops.
