Nestled in an idyllic location between the breathtaking RSPB Wetland, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and Bembridge Harbour and The Solent, lies this substantial four-storey seaside property. Offering spectacular vistas from every room and a unique waterfront setting, Harbour Lights presents an exceptional opportunity to live beside stunning countryside and the sea. This highly sought-after location allows direct access to the harbour, making it convenient for boat enthusiasts and coastal walkers alike. Originally built in the 1970s, the house has undergone extensive modernisation and expansion, most notably with the recent addition of a top floor featuring a vaulted ceiling and generous balconies on both sides, making the most of its end-of-terrace position to capture the sunshine throughout the day and view glorious sunrises and sunsets across the harbour and the surrounding countryside. Versatility is a key feature of this home, which has excelled as both a profitable holiday let and a comfortable family abode. With four double bedrooms and four bathrooms, one of which being ensuite, there is ample space for a growing or multi-generational family, or for hosting guests. On the first floor, the kitchen and living/dining area are complemented by a large wrap-around terrace overlooking the marina, and offer a generous communal space, while the top floor's fabulous sitting room also featuring an ensuite shower room, could also easily serve as an additional bedroom. A spacious hallway, modern utility room and under-stair storage further enhance the property's practical appeal. Outside, the property features ample parking for multiple vehicles and a secure storage room, ideal for bicycles and watersports equipment. At the rear, a paved patio area offers a serene space for relaxation, with scope to add screening if desired.
From the property, a short walk along the old harbour wall "Mill Wall" will lead you to the National Trust St Helen's Duver and its' family-friendly beach, from where Priory Bay and Seaview can also be approached along the coast. The small but vibrant village of St Helens has a village shop, two restaurants and a pub, together with a popular antiquarian bookshop. Alternatively, a walk west along the embankment will bring you to Bembridge, a large village with a wide-range of amenities, extensive mooring facilities and two sailing clubs. The bustling town of Ryde and mainland transport links are just a 5-10 minute drive away.
In summary, Harbour Lights embodies the perfect blend of modern living, captivating views, and a prime waterfront location, making it an exceptional property for those seeking an unforgettable coastal lifestyle.
