For Sale5 Bedroom Semi-Detached House in Freshwater, Isle of Wight, PO40£550,000

This delightful, five-bedroom character property is ideally located on a private lane halfway between two affluent island coastal towns, offering a delightful family residence on the coast, whilst at the same time being within easy distance of amenities. The traditional, red brick house is arranged over three floors and boasts numerous period features throughout, as well as enjoying picturesque sea views across the Bay. Stunning, original wood flooring makes an impressive impact in both reception rooms, upon entering the ground floor and this is just one of many period features to be appreciated throughout this marvelous home. The spacious sitting room is flooded with natural light from multiple dual aspect windows, and includes a very pretty, original working fireplace.  Across the spacious hallway is the dining room, with ample space for large, family dining and includes a wood burning stove set into the original chimney, creating a charming, cosy atmosphere. Conveniently adjoining the dining room is the kitchen, which itself has enough room to accommodate a breakfast area, whilst still allowing ample cupboard and worktop space. The kitchen is immaculately presented and is fitted with fabulous oak countertops, a quaint, ceramic butlers sink and an impressive double dual fuel range cooker. To the first floor are three double bedrooms, all tastefully decorated and all showing off those gorgeous, original fireplaces. Bedrooms two and three enjoying a wonderful outlook over the Solent. A recently updated, contemporary family bathroom serves this floor, with an attractive and practical combined bathtub and shower cubicle. There are a further two double bedrooms on the second floor, with an ensuite shower room to bedroom five, as well as a great sea view. Outside is driveway parking and a detached double garage that has potential for conversion in part or whole to a workshop or even additional living accommodation. The low maintenance garden is a reasonable size and bordered by hedgerow, providing privacy and security for children and pets. There’s a delightful patio that’s the perfect suntrap in the summer months, being sheltered from the harsher elements on all sides. This property is ideally located in a small hamlet between Yarmouth - the UK’s second smallest town – and Freshwater. Yarmouth benefits from unprecedented views across the Solent, which can be appreciated from this fabulous property, and boasts three pubs, two cafes and a general store, whilst Freshwater is larger, with more shops and amenities. Both towns are steeped in history and subsequently ooze old world charm. There’s a choice of several beaches within walking distance of this property, with the spectacular Freshwater, Colwell and Totland Bays, as well as numerous country walks.
