Cottage in Isle of Wight

About this property

Located on the eastern tip of the Isle of Wight, the village of Bembridge boasts an array of picturesque sights and local attractions. Dramatic tides make the surrounding seafront an ever changing experience; from rock pooling and walking along the beach at low tide, to swimming and boating at high tide. The rnli lifeboat shop and station at Lane End beach is a hub of activity, with the Crab and Lobster Pub, and the Harborview Café being other great destinations just off the beach. Quaint shops, galleries, and local eateries line the village's streets, serving freshly caught seafood, and local ales. For nature lovers, the Bembridge Trail offers a serene pathway through marshes and woodlands, while Culver Down is an ideal spot for hiking and breath taking coastal vistas. The house was renovated in 2023 by an architect and designer couple, giving the house a unique character and attention to detail. The house has a spacious and light filled ground floor, which is surrounded by gardens, and a quiet upstairs with three bedrooms and a generous family bathroom. The kitchen is well equipped with all modern appliances and equipment and a central island. The kitchen transitions into a large sun room with high ceilings and large windows looking out to the garden. A large dining table and sofas provide a comfortable space to dine, socialise, or relax. Adjacent to the sunroom, an additional living room provides a versatile space for all ages. Complete with full size football table, books, toys, a television, and a comfortable sofa bed, it can be used as a private and quiet fourth bedroom by closing the doors and drawing the blackout curtains. An entry hall with ample space for shoes and coats, and a downstairs WC with washer and dryer make for ease of use during your stay. Three bedrooms and a family bathroom are accessed off a large sunny landing at the top of the stairs. There are two double bedrooms with full height wardrobes and blackout blinds.
