Extensively renovated to an exceptional standard throughout, this beautiful Victorian home is positioned just moments from spectacular beaches and provides three bedrooms, three bathrooms, three reception rooms and driveway parking.

Originally constructed in 1900, this former hotel was popular with visitors enjoying the close proximity to the coastline and beaches of the South Wight. Purchased by the current owners in 2021, the building has been transformed into a luxurious three bedroom, three bathroom, three reception room home. Major works include a complete rewire and replumb, all new decoration inside and out, a magnificent contemporary kitchen, all new bathrooms and the creation of a fabulous sun terrace. High-quality finishes run throughout, with luxury vinyl tile flooring, plush carpets, brushed stainless switches and sockets, and elegant neutral décor which gives the property a chic, welcoming ambience.

This desirable home is situated in a quiet residential area on the coast road that leads to the beach, and is set just a short walk from the popular holiday town of Shanklin. The beach, which runs from Culver Down through to Shanklin Chine, won the Countryfile Magazine 2019 Beach of the Year award and the town centre contains a wonderful mix of independent shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants. There are good local public travel links from Shanklin via the train station, linked to the fast mainland passenger service in Ryde and regular bus services, making travel around the Island straightforward.

Accommodation consists of a welcoming entrance hall, open plan kitchen and breakfast room, open plan lounge and dining room, cloakroom and utility room on the ground floor, with a large landing, three double bedrooms, two of which are ensuite, and a family bathroom on the first floor.
