A substantial and deceptively spacious home
Occupying an enviable position on one of Cowes' established residential roads, just a short stroll from the High Street and marinas, this property is a beautifully proportioned Victorian home offering exceptional versatility, generous living space and an abundance of period charm. The lower ground floor has been cleverly configured to be further accommodation to the main house or used as a self contained annexe or holiday rental with it's own private entrance. The whole property has 5 bedrooms, a large sitting room, spacious kitchen with dining area, 4 bath/shower rooms, utility room, further kitchen and family room with a ground floor balcony and lower level garden.

Interior
Arranged over four floors, behind its attractive period façade, the property effortlessly combines the grace and character of its Victorian heritage with the practicality required for modern living. High ceilings, large windows, some with pretty colourful stained glass, fireplaces and surrounds, stripped wooden flooring and original architectural detailing create bright, well balanced and quirky interiors, while the flexible layout provides endless possibilities for family life, entertaining or welcoming guests.

Exterior
At the fore of this handsome house there is a terracotta path to the entrance door and a convenient storm porch.
Secure pedestrian access, through a high wooden gate, leads you to the enclosed rear garden that has been designed for ease of maintenance, with a mixture of paved and shingle areas, providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining or relaxing.
There is a useful garden store which adds further convenience and a water feature with pump.

Cowes
Cowes is rich in nautical heritage and an international mecca for sailing, culminating in Cowes Week held in August each year. It has quick access to Southampton via the more modern Red Jet as well as many marinas and sailing clubs dotted along the waterfront.
Within the High Street there are two supermarkets, many boutique shops, pubs and eateries. Historical Northwood House & Park hosts weddings, fairs, concerts and conferences with outside space to enjoy walks. The chain ferry links Cowes to East Cowes where you can find the Red Funnel car and passenger ferry to the mainland.
