Steeped in history, Eagle House stands virtually on the beach at Viking Bay and can date its origins back before the days when it became the headquarters for the Admiralty Coastal Blockade during the Napoleonic Wars. At the time it was known as Admiral House but it was to this building that messengers from the Battle of Waterloo brought back a French Eagle announcing the victory over Napoleon. Since then it has been renamed Eagle House and there is a replica of the Eagle on top of the building. In recent times it was converted into delightful apartments in a unique position with uninterrupted sea views.The building includes this charming apartment that makes an ideal seaside 'pied de terre' or an excellent holiday let. As it is on the second floor it has panoramic sea views but also access to the communal garden and the beach. Steps lead down to the front door that opens into a delightful living space with a large sash bay window, banquette seating and uninterrupted sea views. There is wood flooring and a panelled wall as well as a kitchen with a breakfast bar and units housing various appliances. There is a double shower room and a double bedroom with built in cupboards and French doors to a charming balcony.What the Owner says:This apartment is in a truly unique location.
