The Loft, Gorregan House
Church Road
St. Mary's, Isles of Scilly

Gorregan House is a typical Victorian property in style and is situated in Hugh Town, St. Mary's, convenient for all the Island's services, including shops and beaches.

Originally built as a private residence, and in recent years, converted to provide three fully self -contained apartments. At the time of conversion large dormer windows were added to provide the excellent accommodation that is now contained within The Loft. Subsequently new windows to both the front and rear elevation dormers were fitted. To the front elevation are double glazed wooden sash windows which fold down for cleaning and to the rear are double glazed UPVC windows. The flat is situated on the second floor of Gorregan House and has distant sea views from some of its windows.

About five years ago a considerable amount of money was spent in re designing and re fitting the kitchen and shower room complete, both to a very high standard.

There are three flats in total within the property, all being approached by the original front door, which gives access into a wide hallway and from there the main staircase leads to the first floor landing.
