For those seeking a touch of luxury combined with traditional period elegance, this stunning three-bedroom apartment forms part of a beautifully restored Victorian residence in a fantastic coastal setting.

Steeped in local history dating back to the mid-19th century, this remarkable, sympathetically restored building was originally constructed as a Gentleman's residence and then became St Anthony's Convent in 1912 until 2012 and still stands proud today offering its sophisticated grandeur in the form of eight luxuriously appointed apartments, thanks to an extensive renovation project. With its traditional character lovingly preserved, the building has been carefully reconfigured to offer a superb collection of spacious coastal homes exuding a wealth of historical elegance perfectly combined with exceptional contemporary finishes. A particularly significant feature of this elegant building is the outstanding entrance foyer providing a sense of magnificence as you enter, featuring a handsome turning staircase and a unique domed sky lantern above, creating a striking focal point.

Commanding breathtaking sea views, the apartment itself is located on the first floor which can also be reached via a sophisticated mirrored elevator. Boasting a pristine grey and white colour palette throughout, the beautifully arranged, spacious accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall giving access to the principal en-suite bedroom, the third double bedroom, and a generously proportioned living room with an elaborate feature fireplace. The living room conveniently flows to a contemporary kitchen benefitting from integrated appliances and also proceeds to a modern shower room plus the second double bedroom, also featuring a beautifully finished en-suite. Each of the en-suites and the separate shower room feature state-of-the-art fixtures offering multiple showering functions, providing a touch of spa-like luxury.

Additionally, each of the apartments at St Anthony's come complete with a parking bay and benefit from a video security entry system, providing extra peace of mind.

Perfectly set back from the coastal footpath, St Anthony's is tucked away in a peaceful position at the end of Beatrice Avenue; a coastal road that leads to the clifftop footpath, and is just a short walk from the beach and popular holiday town of Shanklin. Offering a traditional seafront promenade and a fantastic choice of highly regarded seaside eateries, the extensive sandy bay won the Countryfile Magazine 2019 Beach of the Year award and run from Culver Down through to Shanklin Chine. Shanklin is also renowned for its historical places of interest and natural beauty such as the charming Shanklin Old Village with its thatched cottages and the wooded coastal ravine of Shanklin Chine with its cascading waterfalls and lush vegetation. The town centre contains a wonderful mix of independent shops, pubs, cafes, and restaurants, as well as a popular theatre hosting top acts all year round. Shanklin also has good local public travel links with the train station connecting to the fast mainland foot passenger service in Ryde, and regular bus services making car-free travel around the Island accessible and convenient.
