Property description
Step back in time and soak up this breath taking ground floor flat with uninterrupted views of the sea.
The Royal Hotel was built in 1820 and in 1840 they built an extension which was then used as the dining room.
This property was part of the dining room. Spacious rooms with high ceilings, very much a feature of the Victorian period. As you exit the 'French' doors leading onto the 40ft patio, you can almost imagine what it must have been like in those golden years, sat out on a glorious sunny day enjoying cream teas under the shade of the veranda. Even on entering the main door to the building, you cannot help but feel a bit of nostalgia.
The lounge and master bedroom are the rooms that benefit from the views, but having walked through the ground floor accommodation you then have a staircase to the basement where good use has been made of the space with a large living area that has been used as a games room, a storage room, a potential fourth bedroom and a shower room, and this can be accessed separately from the front of the building.
The residents have communal gardens to share and all have an equal say in the general up keep of the building and its grounds. Parking is allocated and this apartment also comes with a garage.
Apart from the obvious benefits of living in such a prestigious building with the sea on your doorstep, amenities are close by and also one of Hayling's three golf courses is within a comfortable walk.
What the Owner says:
When we first viewed the property back in 2006, we were instantly struck by the mind boggling views.
The building is impressive looking from both the front and rear and as you enter it gives you quite a grand feeling.
There are security shutters installed in the rooms that face the sea and the staircase to the basement to make better use of the space available.
The rooms are generous throughout and it is so nice to have friendly residents who would be there if you needed their help but are not in each others pockets.
