From here, a corridor leads through the apartment with a bathroom to one side. In the opposite direction, there is a useful understairs storage cupboard and a further airing cupboard housing a radiator and slatted shelving. The second bedroom is long and narrow with windows to both the front and rear elevations, while the main bedroom enjoys double glazed sliding doors opening directly onto a fully enclosed paved courtyard garden. From the bedroom there is access through to the kitchen, which overlooks the courtyard.
Flat 5B, located on the first floor, is rich in period features, with beautiful exposed beam work that contributes significantly to the building’s listed status and historic charm. The first bedroom is positioned to the front and features an original window, a blocked fireplace and access to an additional space ideal for use as a dressing area or walk-in wardrobe. A short flight of steps leads to the kitchen. Further steps lead into a striking central hallway where exposed beams and archways create a wonderful sense of heritage and individuality. From here, the second bedroom is accessed, enjoying two front-facing windows and impressive beam work. An inner hallway provides access to useful storage cupboards and leads through to the bathroom. At the far end of the apartment lies a particularly impressive living room, featuring striking exposed beams and two windows, one of which enjoys superb views across the estuary, creating a fantastic space to relax or entertain.
Overall, this is a truly distinctive and historically significant property offering an exceptional level of space, flexibility and character in a prime village setting, with the added benefit of two self-contained flats and considerable potential for a variety of future uses, subject to the necessary consents.
