Rich in original features, from decorative cornices and fireplaces to elegant gothic pointed windows, the property has been thoughtfully updated to meet the needs of contemporary living, without compromising its historic character.<br/><br/>Harbour House offers flexible accommodation but equally would work as a large family home. It is currently configured as two separate flats. In addition, there is a one-bedroom annexe as well as studios/workshops which over the years have been rented to local artists, offering a commercial incentive to astute buyers.<br/><br/>The grand entrance hall sets the tone, with traditional Victorian tiled flooring, high ceilings, original dado rails, and decorative coving all contributing to a refined sense of period elegance. On the ground floor is a sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room with conservatory, home office with adjacent utility room, two bedrooms, one en suite and a shower room. On the first floor is a library, kitchen/breakfast room, principal bedroom with en suite shower room and dressing room, guest bedroom room with en suite bathroom, further bedroom, utility room and a cloakroom on the mezzanine floor. <br/><br/>The annexe is accessed through its own entrance and has an open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room and an en suite to the bedroom.
