Interior
Ground Floor:
The spacious sitting room enjoys an east-facing balcony, bringing in the morning light and offering glimpses towards the Solent. Alongside is a separate study, ideal for working from home or simply having a quiet space away from the main living areas.

The bright, dual-aspect dining room is a lovely space for entertaining, with doors opening onto an elevated terrace and allowing the garden and house to connect beautifully during the warmer months.

The kitchen is well equipped with an excellent range of cabinetry, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances, with space for a relaxed dining area. From here, the house opens into a particularly attractive garden room, featuring underfloor heating and a striking lantern roof. Overlooking the landscaped gardens and mature woodland beyond, it is an inviting room to enjoy throughout the year.

Lower Ground Floor:
From the kitchen, a staircase leads to a useful utility and hobby room, providing excellent additional space for storage, hobbies or a workshop. There is potential to extend this area and connect the current store room to create an annex or separate living quarters subject to the usual consents . A door from the hobby room accesses the double garage – a real advantage for anyone with sailing or boating equipment to store.

First Floor:
Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four bedrooms, three of which are generous doubles with built-in storage. The principal bedroom and second bedroom both benefit from en-suite shower rooms with a bath also in the principal ensuite, while the bedrooms to the front of the house enjoy lovely views towards the Solent.

Exterior
The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of the property's elevated, sloping position. A series of planted terraces leads down from the house, creating a succession of attractive spaces, enabling the owners to follow the sun during the day or find shaded spots and making the garden feel both established and private.

A generous paved terrace provides an excellent spot for outdoor dining, while a Japanese-inspired planting area adds a peaceful focal point. Beneath the garden room is a particularly useful large area of storage, ideal for keeping sailing and watersports equipment, paddleboards, garden tools and all the other essentials that come with coastal living.

There are two parking areas in front of the garage and a large side terrace that has been utilised for watercraft by the current owners in the past.

The gated setting also provides a sense of privacy and security, particularly useful for those who may spend periods away from home.
