This handsome detached house was constructed in the 1930s and offers an appealing blend of spacious family living spaces and the character of the time. The property is conveniently located a short walk to both Freshwater and Totland and has gas centrally heated and UPVC double glazed accommodation. Many of the rooms have bright double aspects, including the comfortable sitting room with its feature fireplace. This room links through into a very large conservatory which creates a great link with the garden. The pretty cottage style kitchen is arranged over two levels with a range cooker built into a natural brick chimney breast. The room links open plan through to a good sized dining room and creates a real heart to the home. A spacious study could also double as a ground floor double bedroom with a separate cloakroom to service it. There are three super bedrooms upstairs, one having the benefit of its own en-suite shower room. The fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a handy dressing room with fitted wardrobes and the rear facing rooms offer distant views to the Solent. A large family bathroom has a lovely Victorian styling with a slipper bath and high level cistern WC. The house is set centrally within lawned gardens with a paved terrace, mature trees and sleeper edged gravel paths. There is plenty of storage and working space available in the smart brick built garage with electronic door and very useful separate home office/hobbies room to the rear. The older timber garage provides additional covered parking with a store at the rear. Both garages are accessed by a long driveway which provides plenty of parking.
