About the Property
A rare opportunity to purchase and renovate a 5 bedroom, 4 reception room maisonette in Porkington Terrace. Occupying the 2nd and 3rd floors of No.7 it is the freehold interest in the whole property that is being offered for sale (subject to the existing long leases of the ground and first floor flats) providing the new owners with the flexibility to create a stunning home, incredible holiday let or private holiday home
Porkington Terrace is famous for its 4 storey beautiful Victorian buildings (c1870) which have the most incredible panoramic views over Barmouth Bridge, the Mawddach Estuary and over to Cader Idris. Best seen from the famous Barmouth Bridge the grand houses stand facing above on Porkington Crescent with a backdrop of hills and a view of the waters in front.
In recent years, the majority of the houses on the terrace have undergone renovation and this is a unique opportunity to purchase such a spacious property in an iconic location (for many years a much loved family home ) which now presents a blank canvas for new owners. Undoubtedly a project, but one which will reap rewards and is not to be missed.
Flat 3 is set over two floors and has the use of communal gardens across the road. On road parking is available and the property is connected to mains gas and is double glazed. It benefits from a recently installed contemporary shower room and separate WC.
