Sound like bliss? If so, this delightful, one bedroom, second floor apartment could be your perfect next home, or even a weekend getaway.

Nestled in the heart of the town, the apartment forms part of the Grade II Listed, Merchant’s House; later part of the former Girl's School. It's superb setting means everything you could need can be found a short stroll away, whether it's a pint of milk and a loaf of bread or an evening meal with friends along with quay, everything is close by.

When you couple this with the allocated secure off-road parking, beautiful communal gardens and  shared riverside terrace you have a home that can be enjoyed from the moment you step foot inside.

Stepping off Kings Street, you'll find yourself strolling through the gated entrance hall and entering the communal courtyard; a first glimpse of the property’s history. To the left a door under the wrought iron canopy leads to the generous stairway. Once on the second floor you step foot inside this fabulous home; the welcoming entrance hall guiding you into the accommodation as well as providing some useful and generous storage space. The living accommodation flows effortlessly from space to space. The sitting room offers the perfect spot to relax and unwind at the end of the day. From here the kitchen leads you on to the breakfast room/study, a perfect spot to enjoy a bite to eat. Then you can step out and on to the rooftop garden. This is but one of the many reasons the current owner bought this home. Back from the main hallway, you'll find the generous double bedroom, again with generous storage. A peaceful retreat, it provides the ideal spot to recharge your batteries. The final piece of accommodation is the bright and airy bathroom.

A short walk through the flower beds of the stunning paved courtyard takes you to the main garden with delightful lawn and herbaceous borders.  The Riverside Seating Terraces and Summer House lie on the estuary side of the main garden.
