Wishing Well Close, Ryde

Architecturally striking home in an exclusive development of just 25 properties, offering four bedrooms, expansive open-plan living, landscaped gardens and breathtaking countryside and Solent views.

Completed in 2020 and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, 24 Wishing Well Close is an exceptional contemporary home occupying one of the most sought-after positions within this exclusive development. The property has been carefully upgraded, with stylish interior design, an abundance of bespoke built-in storage, the addition of a superb ground-floor study or additional bedroom, and also benefits from underfloor heating. For added peace of mind, the property benefits from the balance of the 10 year LABC new-build warranty, which commenced in 2020.

Designed with a striking modern aesthetic, the home is arranged over two levels in an innovative ‘upside-down’ configuration, ensuring that the main living spaces enjoy the finest natural light and the most impressive views across the surrounding countryside, nearby nature reserve and the Solent beyond. The result is a wonderfully bright and spacious home that effortlessly blends modern architecture with comfortable family living.

Externally, the property has been transformed by extensive landscaping which now provides a series of stone terraces, lawns and seating areas, together with a charming summerhouse and a high-quality cabin that offers additional versatility as a workspace, studio or garden retreat.

Wishing Well Close is an exclusive and architecturally distinctive development set within the desirable coastal hamlet of Pondwell, perfectly positioned between the charming sailing village of Seaview and the vibrant seaside town of Ryde. This attractive setting offers the best of both worlds — tranquil countryside surroundings combined with easy access to the Island’s beautiful coastline and amenities. Miles of coastal paths and countryside walks can be enjoyed nearby, while Seaview’s beach, sailing club and popular eateries are only a short distance away. The nearby town of Ryde offers an excellent range of shops, restaurants and cafés as well as convenient mainland passenger links via hovercraft and fast ferry services.
