This charming period cottage has been refurbished and provides well presented, modernised accommodation that retains original features such as large sash windows and attractive period fireplaces to the sitting room and main bedroom. The particularly spacious main reception room is ideal for entertaining with direct access to the rear garden which itself offers an attractive yet easily maintainable outside space. The property is situated in a prime location within the old town, being a short walk down Market Hill to the High Street where a good range of shops, pubs and restaurants can be found as well as the high speed Redjet ferry service providing frequent services to Southampton (taking about 20 minutes).
