Offering a fantastic coastal lifestyle within the heart of Ryde, this extensively renovated, three-bedroom apartment provides a spacious two-storey home and far-reaching sea views from the principal suite.

Having undergone extensive works, 22a Cross Street is now ready for the new owners to enjoy this luxurious, immaculately finished coastal home with glorious sandy beaches, mainland travel links, and the High Street on the doorstep. Forming part of an elegant, beautifully restored Victorian building, 22a Cross Street benefits from a private entrance door and traditional character with its magnificent high ceilings, spacious proportions, and large windows to the front offering far-reaching sea views.

Bathed in natural light throughout, this stunning home provides a practical and generous living environment, perfectly arranged over the upper two floors of the building. From the ground floor entrance, the accommodation comprises a turning staircase ascending to a large first floor landing giving access to a double bedroom, a cloakroom and an open plan living space with a contemporary kitchen complete with integrated appliances.

Furthermore, residents of the property are entitled to apply for parking permits for two vehicles at nearby on-street parking bays plus council car park locations, and the current vendors are happy to cover the permit costs for the first two years. The current vendors may be also interested in a part-exchange, depending on the property.
