Three apartments - 5 minutes drive from the town centre. Perfect for country stillness and nearby town facilities.
The Decca Apartments are within The Decca two storey accommodation building. The three one bedroom apartments ‘Tystie’, ‘Tammie Norie’ and ‘Tirrick’, are on the 1st floor of The Decca, and have just been completed in April 2010, finalising the renovation of the old Radio Navigational Signal Station. Steve (one of the owners of the properties) designed and built the apartments himself, utilising the coombed ceilings and the whole of the 1st floor area.
Tystie, Tammie Norie and Tirrick each have their own doors, opening into an open plan living area, cleverly integrating a fully equipped quality kitchen, living and dining area. There is a shower room and double bedroom (twin bedroom for Tammie Norie) off from the living area. The apartments have been finished in Ash, and the main areas floored with Karndean Flooring, while the bedrooms have luxurious thick carpeting.
