The heart of the apartment is a bright, open-plan living space featuring a bespoke kitchen with an island, a comfortable dining area, and a cozy living room with a wood burner and underfloor heating, perfect for winter evenings.
A wall of triple-glazed doors floods the room with natural light and opens onto a large balcony with breathtaking south-easterly views of the River Deben, stretching towards historic Sutton Hoo.
An elegant oak staircase leads to the second floor, where a secluded third double bedroom awaits, complete with an ensuite bathroom. This room boasts its own private balcony, offering elevated panoramic views of the River Deben.

Guest access
A private access road to the Crow's Nest is shared by half a dozen other dwellings and the boatyard. Access to the apartment is gained via an external staircase to the front door. This stair has recently had a stairlift installed to facilitate disabled access. There is ample off-road parking near the boatyard, with two spaces in front of the building.
Other things to note
The apartment overlooks our boatyard, with a slipway in front of the balcony that will occasionally have various vessels undergoing repair and maintenance work during the day. From time to time there will be a little noise during working hours.
