3 bedroom detached house

Extensively refurbished to a high standard throughout, this handsome Victorian home is conveniently positioned on the outskirts of this popular seaside town and provides three bedrooms, driveway parking and a beautifully designed rear garden.

Exhibiting period grandeur, this imposing detached house is simply stunning and has been sympathetically renovated by the current owner who has perfectly retained the property's elaborate Victorian feel. Built circa 1890s, the high ceilings and deep skirtings, period picture rails and traditional panel doors make this an elegant home and the current owner of over three years has perfectly combined the period charm with modern design to complement the historical character of this property. Providing a welcoming and stylish home, an abundance of improvements can be admired throughout including a completely renovated kitchen, a new bathroom and cloakrooms, restored timber flooring and stylish redecoration, and replastered walls as well as restored ceilings.

Ryde seafront is only a short walk away from the property which boasts long stretches of sandy beaches with numerous seaside activities such as bowling, laser quest and an open-air swimming pool. With good local primary and secondary schools nearby, there are also plenty of high street amenities close by including boutique shops and convenience stores, a superb choice of eateries and even a local cinema. Another benefit of being so close to the seafront is having easy access to high-speed mainland ferry links with Wightlinks fast catamaran service and the Hovercraft which only takes 10 minutes to cross the Solent.
