A Unique Setting, Endless Potential

Taddiford Gap is a secluded coastal area situated between Milford on Sea and Barton on Sea in Hampshire, England. Known for its shingle and mud-sand beach, it offers visitors tranquil surroundings and stunning views of the Isle of Wight. During World War II, Taddiford Gap was fortified with concrete anti-tank defences, commonly known as "dragon's teeth," to prevent enemy landings. While coastal erosion has affected the area, remnants of these defenses can still be observed today. There is also evidence of Roman encampment, making the area archaeologically important to the South Coast.

Services: The property is connected to mains water, electricity, and gas, with private drainage and modern heating solutions in place.

Don’t miss the chance to make this rare historic farmstead your legacy – a blend of coastal beauty, rich heritage, and limitless possibilities.
