St. Elvis is a charming period property located in the ever-popular fishing and ship building village of Appledore. It has a vibrant, creative and proud community, with the appeal of a famous and much admired annual Book Festival, whilst also being a friendly, seasonal holiday destination.

Buyers should be aware this house is in need of considerable renovation to bring it up to a modern standard. St. Elvis is a versatile property, over 3 floors with significant potential and a variety of ways the layout could be configured to create the home you desire.

To the rear of the property is a delightful terraced garden over 2 levels together with a patio area on the Ground Floor. 50 metres walk down New Quay Street is Bell Slip, with a lovely view as well as being useful for those with an interest in water sports. There is also access to the rear of St. Elvis, via New Street. As a resident of Appledore, you have the benefit of free mooring rights.

There are already wonderful panoramic views of the Estuary from St. Elvis that can only be enhanced when the provisional plans for Richmond Dry Dock are approved.

St. Elvis makes for an interesting proposition for confident and experienced buyers.
