“The Mizzen”
Flat 14, Harbour Lights,
St. Mary's
A second floor holiday apartment contained within a development of seven similar apartments adjoining the Town Beach of St. Mary’s and having direct access on to the beach through a private gateway.

The apartments were originally created in 1987 from what was then a large Guest House, Harbour Lights is centrally located and was built on the basis that planning consent was given that the flats can only be occupied as holiday homes and cannot be used as permanent residences.

Harbour Lights is centrally located within Hugh Town and close to all the shops, restaurants, harbour and other amenities. This particular flat has a convenient location on the first floor with lounge and bedroom windows all facing south.

All flats in Harbour Lights have the distinct advantage of a direct beach access at the rear of the property through a communal courtyard and gate onto St. Mary’s Harbour Beach and the use of a small communal library, pay phone and washing / drying facilities (at a charge) in the main hallway.

When the property was converted from a guesthouse the fittings and furnishings used were of a good standard. The property has since been well maintained on an annual basis and in the winter of 2006 the kitchen and bathroom have been totally remodelled and refurbished and new carpets and curtains have been provided throughout, the sale includes all items and equipment sufficient to meet the requirements of the English Tourist Board.

The flat has been awarded a 3-Star rating by the English Tourist Board and is successfully let on the holiday market and has forward reservations for the year 2006.
