Esplanade, Ventnor, Isle of Wight

This impressive, four-bedroom property is situated in a prime position directly on the seafront of the historic seaside town of Ventnor, boasting some of the most spectacular views the island has to offer across the English Channel.

Built to a very high specification, this modern home was designed for optimising its wonderful location and has two balconies from which to experience the panoramic, breathtaking views. Arranged over three floors, the front entrance is just a stone's throw from the golden, sandy beach and opens into a spacious hallway which leads to two double bedrooms and a tastefully designed wet room with a luxurious level entry shower. To the rear of the third bedroom is a covered area ideal for storing watersports equipment, when not being used at the adjacent beach. Additionally, there's a handy utility room with storage space.

The main living accommodation can be found on the first floor and is an open plan arrangement with a delightful, shaker style kitchen including all integrated appliances and access to the rear garden. Towards the front is the generous sitting room that has full height glass bay windows and a door leading onto a fabulous, spacious balcony overlooking the ocean – an ideal setting for entertaining friends alfresco and enjoying the vista.

To the first floor are a further two double bedrooms and a large family bathroom with a bath and separate shower. The main bedroom includes built in wardrobes and access to its own balcony overlooking the bay with ample space for seating.

Outside to the rear is a pretty, tiered garden and steps leading to allocated parking. Also worthy of note is the excellent EPC rating, which goes a long way to keeping energy costs to a minimum.

For buyers seeking a perfect retreat by the sea, in an ever-popular Victorian seaside town, this home really does surpass expectations.

What the Owner says:

Our experience of living right by the beach has been delightful, the melancholy sound of the waves on the shore, with the doors thrown back on a hot summer evening, an experience like no other. Overlooking both the beach and the English Channel, provides a compelling outlook, ever changing and interesting to admire. Ventnor has its own microclimate and experiences milder weather than the rest of the island and England as a whole. It has a rich history of being a health resort for those suffering with respiratory conditions during Queen Victoria's reign. Nowadays, what was once the respiratory hospital is Ventnor Botanic Gardens which showcases flowers from around the world, thanks to Ventnor's unique climate. The UK's oldest theme park, Blackgang Chine is just down the road, a place where island history combines with modern amusements.

Ventnor is also a thriving fishing town and there's no better place to experience the wonderful, locally caught seafood than in some of the best restaurants in the country. There's the Hambrough Hotel, that overlooks the bay and the infamous Royal Hotel, as well as the more recent additions of the very popular Smoking Lobster and The Terrace, just steps along the road. The town itself is enchanting with plenty more eateries, creating a thriving food scene, with enormous variation. Should you be looking for cocktails or to sample craft beers instead, you'll discover an establishment for that too.
