A short distance from St Austell Bay and the coastal footpath and within 200 meters of the Historic Port of Charlestown and its amenities and eateries, is this impressive two bedroom maisonette apartment which forms part of the historic Old School Rooms to the rear of the Methodist Chapel. A tucked away position within the heart of the Village. A viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the size and standard of finish within this apartment which forms part of the small select development of five homes.
Charlestown is a popular Georgian harbour side village situated around a picturesque inner and outer harbour with pebble beach, some two miles from St Austell town centre. The harbour currently houses some fishing boats and several tall ships, and has been the back drop of several feature films and TV series such as Poldark, Alice in Wonderland, Doctor Who, The Three Musketeers and The Eagle Has Landed, largely due to its picturesque natural and unspoilt coastline surrounds. Charlestown has a hotel and guest houses, with excellent restaurants, and a selection of public houses. To both sides of Charlestown harbour there is the South West coastal footpath providing some wonderful walks with cliff top views and sandy coves and beaches. To the east lies the natural deep harbour port of Fowey with excellent boating facilities and with a range of excellent local shops and restaurants. Nearby are several beaches including Porthpean which has its own sailing club and outdoor activities centre. The property is within easy walking distance to several beaches, supermarkets and St Austell Station (London Paddington four and a half hours).
