A Four Bedroom, Mid-Terrace, Three Storey
'Yachtmans' cottage with delightful views over the harbour and River Medina. With a low maintenance rear garden and use of a 12m pontoon mooring, this is a perfect holiday retreat or holiday let home.
Island Harbour
Set in a beautiful and secluded valley, yet in a central location, Island Harbour is the perfect base from which to explore the Island and the Solent. Located in navigable water on the River Medina, the marina is approximately 2 miles upstream from Cowes, just above the Folly reach. As a site of Special Scientific Interest and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the marina is home to many species of birds and wildlife. Meadows and woodland copses slope down to the marina's edge. A stroll along the nature trail allows you to fully appreciate the seclusion and tranquillity of the marina site. With just under 100 properties, Island Harbour is home to permanent residents, secondary residents and holiday makers alike. The locked harbour is a safe and secure place to moor a boat or just visit for the day! The harbour benefits from The Breeze, a popular restaurant, only a short walk away with lovely marina and river views. Other amenities include a chandlery, repair workshop, 50 ton hoist and slip crane, hard standing, showers and laundry room. The development is surrounded by well-kept communal grounds that include a meadow, an open field which has been purchased by the residents to provide private dog exercise space and a BBQ area. The estate benefits from 6 newly installed Project Pev Pro electric charging points which are available to residents. There is a walk/cycle trail that leads you to Newport along the River Medina with beautiful views.
Approaching The Property
A 'stones throw' from the waters edge, this three storey home is accessed via a small flight of steps onto a wide paved area with red brick built up flower beds across the front of the property and to one side. Two further steps lead you up to the dark wood door with glazed panel.
Ground Floor
Entering directly into the main reception room, the 'cottage style' of this home is shown to effect with the dark wood ceiling beams within this room and throughout the property. Neutral decor and wooden flooring sweep through the ground floor. A gas 'coal effect' fire with its stone surround sits snuggly in one corner of this large sitting room with its two windows either side of the entrance door.
Passing through the panelled door towards the rear of the property, the inner lobby has two large cupboards on each side, ideal for useful storage and one also houses the hot water cylinder. A third door opens into a utility room including a WC, a sink and space/plumbing for a washing machine.
The final room, that overlooks the rear garden, is the kitchen with an array of wooden base and wall units, separated by a black marble effect splashback. There is an integral 4 ring gas hob, extractor fan, single oven and space for a dishwasher. The rear lobby has access to the kitchen, the back door and a staircase leading to the first floor.
First Floor
This wide bright landing has a window to the far end that overlooks the calm harbour and has room here to place a desk, so working from home has a soothing aspect. Also off this area are stairs leading up to the second floor, a family bathroom and two double bedrooms. Both these bedrooms, one facing fore and the other aft, have two built in wardrobes with neutral decor and carpet. The family bathroom has light brown mottled tiles on all walls and a white suite including a bath with overhead shower.
Second Floor
In keeping with the lower floor, both double bedrooms have two built in wardrobes and dormer windows, the rear bedroom giving views over the communal gardens and the larger front bedroom, with far reaching views over the harbour and the peaceful River Medina. In addition to the bright sunny aspect, this bedroom has a fully tiled en-suite shower room in the same style as the family bathroom.
Rear Garden
A small paved garden including flower beds either side with boundaries of wooden fencing and a low wooden gate that leads to the communal gardens and pathways that meander around the Island Harbour grounds.
