Description

Nestled within the attractive and well-maintained Wrafton House on Melville Street, this beautifully light and spacious two-bedroom second-floor flat forms part of a handsome Victorian conversion with listed status to the front elevation and a more modern rear addition. The building itself sits in an elevated, enviable position just moments from the heart of Ryde, with its charming bow-fronted façade offering real kerb appeal.

This characterful home offers a peaceful yet incredibly convenient lifestyle, tucked slightly off the main thoroughfare but within easy strolling distance of the eclectic mix of shops, cafés and restaurants on Union Street and the wider town centre. Ryde Esplanade with its sandy beach and direct mainland travel connections is also within walking distance, making this an ideal base for commuters, weekenders or downsizers alike.

Internally, the property is bright and airy throughout, thanks to large windows and an open-plan flow between the spacious living room and kitchen/diner, separated by a wide opening that retains a feeling of openness while still offering defined spaces. Both bedrooms are double size, and the flat benefits from electric heating and double glazing throughout.

Externally, residents enjoy the use of a well-kept communal garden, mainly laid to lawn, and a large parking area with ample unallocated resident parking. The building is managed by a professional management company and is clearly cared for, with a good standard of maintenance throughout.

The current lease has 87 years remaining; however, the present owners are in the process of extending the lease in anticipation of a sale, offering peace of mind to prospective purchasers.
