The staircase has original Chinoiserie panels and leads to living room with handsome ornamental fireplace, TV/DVD and stunning ship-watching view, and two more bedrooms - a double (5' bed) with more great views, and one with two singles; a few more stairs up to bathroom (suite with roll-top bath and separate shower).

A few low lintels.

Loading/unloading outside only; public car park, 200 yards.

Attic flat (separate access) occasionally used by the owner.
