SOLD BY H TIDDY! SIMILAR PROPERTIES URGENTLY REQUIRED! A spacious ground floor apartment with parking and outstanding panoramic views, located in one of the quietest areas in the village, within a 150 yard walk of the exclusive waterfront and Tavern Beach.

The Views
The captivating views encompass the Percuil River, Summers Beach, St Anthony National Trust Headland, St Mawes Harbour, across Falmouth Bay to the Lizard Peninsula, St Mawes and Pendennis Castle and miles of open sea.
