What the Owner says:
I really loved the light and bright atmosphere as well as the views when I first saw the property. I have owned it for some 14 years and have thoroughly enjoyed living here. It will be a wrench to leave but I feel it is now time to downsize although I shall stay in the nearby area as I love Shanklin. The property is a very flexible and will suit a variety of families whether they are into horses or other animals and/or have intergenerational requirements with having the ground floor bedroom. It is very quiet and peaceful and ideal for children and pets as there are lovely places to go for walks. It is a friendly village and home to the island's donkey sanctuary and only about a couple of miles from Shanklin.

Shanklin is a delightful seaside resort including the impressive Shanklin beach that was winner of the Beach of the Year Award in the Countryfile Magazine in 2019. The Old Village is charming with its thatched cottages, independent shops, restaurants and pubs while the Shanklin Theatre provides a variety of professional and amateur shows for evening entertainment. You will also find suitable infant nurseries in the vicinity as well as find two good primary schools.
