65, Park Road, Ryde

Offered for sale chain-free, this beautiful 19th-century townhouse offers spacious, modern interiors, courtyard gardens, as well as a garage with potential, and off-road parking.

Dating back to the late 1800s and believed to have been part of Ryde’s historic Southlands Manor, this fabulous stone-built townhouse is tucked away from the road in a quiet spot and boasts striking, characterful features on the exterior façade. The property benefits from off-road parking to the front, a garage, and a pathway leading to a courtyard and the front door.

The front door opens onto a split-level landing, which provides access to the open-plan living area and a shower room on the lower ground floor, while the stairwell leads up to a landing space and bedroom two. The stairwell continues to the second floor, which leads to a further bedroom and a shower room. From the open-plan living space, French doors lead out to a courtyard at the rear of the property.

Just a short walk from the property is Ryde seafront, which boasts long stretches of sandy beaches with numerous seaside activities such as bowling, laser quest, and an open-air swimming pool. With good local primary and secondary schools nearby, there are also plenty of high street amenities within a short walking distance, including boutique shops and convenience stores, a superb choice of eateries, and even a local cinema. Another benefit of being so close to the seafront is easy access to high-speed foot passenger travel to the mainland via Wightlink’s catamaran service and the Hovercraft, which takes just 10 minutes to cross the Solent to Southsea. Additionally, the Fishbourne to Portsmouth car ferry service is located just 3.4 miles away. Regular bus services operate along Park Road and connect with Ryde bus station, while the Island Line train service is also located nearby.
