Summary
An individual, stylishly appointed and extremely well presented first floor apartment with a parking space and panoramic harbour, sea and headland views, conveniently located near the village centre.Warmed by a central heating system to radiators, this light and airy apartment has double glazed windows and doors. Both bedrooms, the living room, balcony and well-equipped kitchen all benefit from the beautiful views which encompass St Mawes harbour and quay, St Anthony National Trust owned headland, Falmouth Bay, Lizard Peninsula and miles of open sea beyond.

Summary Continued
Located so close to the village centre, a rare and sought-after benefit is the parking space. Shops, restaurants, pubs and the sailing club are within a 350 yard stroll and Summers Beach is only a 500 yard walk away. This rare opportunity has been used for holiday letting previously and fixtures, fittings contents and furnishings (with the exception of personal belongings) are available by separate negotiation. This south-west facing apartment has 968 years remaining on its long lease which has a peppercorn ground rent. The costs of external upkeep and maintenance of the building is shared equally with the ground floor apartment. In our opinion, Aloft represents excellent value either as a permanent or second home. Viewing is unhesitatingly recommended.

From the allocated parking space, steps lead up to Aloft's independent entrance door into the entrance porch with a range of ample storage cupboards to one wall. An oak glazed door leads to the main hallway that has oak doors to the bedrooms and main shower room. A glazed oak door leads to the living room that has a feature fireplace with 'driftwood' surround and a wood burner on a polished granite hearth. Two French doors lead to the balcony that captures the outstanding water views. There is a well-equipped open plan modern kitchen with granite worktops and appliances including fridge / freezer, dishwasher, washer / dryer, induction hob, stainless steel extractor hood and fan assisted oven. A wide picture window captures the south facing water and village views. The master bedroom has a stylish en suite shower room (with under-floor heating) and benefits from the glorious water views as does the dual aspect second bedroom. A good sized and luxury fitted shower room services the second bedroom and has a double linen cupboard and under-floor heating.

Places of interest

    Unsurpassed local area knowledge is a significant attribute of the directors and staff of H Tiddy.

All this, plus living and working locally, makes us uniquely and comprehensively qualified. Three of the staff were born locally.
