The property is situated in Royal Crescent, which overlooks the northern end of the sea front of Weston-super-Mare close to the renowned Winter Gardens, the High Street, Grove Park (with the famous Jill Dando memorial), the Playhouse Theatre and the redeveloped Knightstone complex, from which paddle steamers ply the Bristol Channel. With the re-opening of the nearby Grand Pier after a £34m re-build scheme in October 2010 following the disastrous fire in 2008 the town has been re-invigorated. For many years the pier has been one of the top ten free visitor attractions in the UK and the future appears bright.

Forming part of a hidden jewel in the very heart of Weston-super-Mare and close to the sea this stunning period property in the Georgian style offers 7 self contained apartments laid out over 5 floors including a spacious 3 bed owners flat with private rear garden and garage. Long established as holiday letting accommodation the property is beautifully appointed throughout with a full upgrade of bathroom/ensuite facilities recently completed, a new fire alarm system installed and the rear of the property repainted externally in 2010. With the exception of the accommodation at lower ground floor level all suites benefit from attractive aspects with those on the first, second and third floors enjoying far reaching views of the sea and coast.

The property, which is understood to have been built in the early Victorian era in 1845, forms part of a terrace of 10 units constructed of stone in the Georgian style reminiscent of the world famous Royal Crescent in Bath.
