A superb three bedroom apartment offering the perfect blend of character and contemporary style suited to seaside holiday living. The panoramic sea views are enjoyed from all living and bedrooms - even the utility room! The apartment covers the top floor and part of the first floor of the historic Old Watch House on the harbour front. The distinctive building as once the Custom and Excise office an well as a pilchard press, and in 1907 the ground floor beacame a tea room. Once the home of acclaimed local artist Julian Dyson, who must have been inspired by the location and views and many of whose works adorn the walls of the Hotel Tresanton. Sitting in the window of the large open plan living room, you almost feel you are top of the water and watching the tide ebb and floow is mesmerising. Fully renovated in more recent years, the apartment is bright and light with a wonderful sense of space and much of that is owed to the vaulted and pitched ceilings with exposed beams which also add great character. The apartment is decorated in soft creams throughout to suit most tastes and give a timeless feel to the property. With accommodation including three bedrooms, bathroom, shower room, separate wc, well equipped kitchen and separate uiltity room, along with modern comforts such as central heating and double glazing, it is easy to understand why the property makes such a popular holiday home. Viewing is strongly advised by the agents sole agent to truly understand and enjoy the style, feel and location of this wonderful property.
