A Three Storey Period Property In Central Cowes

This beautifully presented semi-detached character home has 3/4 double bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms, a kitchen breakfast room and two receptions. The outside space has an 'al fresco' dining area, garden and storage facility is well maintained and with off road parking for three vehicles, which gives it a real bonus for a property so close to the town centre.

Cowes

Cowes is rich in nautical heritage and an international mecca for sailing, culminating in Cowes Week held in August each year. It has quick access to Southampton via the more modern Red Jet as well as many marinas and sailing clubs dotted along the waterfront.
Within the High Street there are two supermarkets, many boutique shops, pubs and eateries. Historical Northwood House & Park hosts weddings, fairs, concerts and conferences with outside space to enjoy walks. The chain ferry, known locally as 'The Floaty', links Cowes to East Cowes where the Red Funnel car and passenger ferry to the mainland, is situated.

Approaching The Property

Located in a well positioned road for access to the chain ferry and to the Red Jet, this period property is on a slightly elevated point looking towards the waterfront in Cowes. With cream rendered bay windows that contrast against the brick building, this very well kept home has a low maintenance frontage with a tarmacked driveway for several cars that leads to a wooden gate with double doors. The storm porch has a beautiful blue entrance door with brass knocker, letter box and period style coloured glass inserts.

Ground Floor

An elegant and beautiful character home which is spacious and has a wealth of original details. With bay windows on two floors at the front of the property, high ceilings, stripped flooring throughout the majority of the home and wooden decorative detail on the staircase that winds up to the top floor. All main rooms on the first and second floors have fireplaces which gives a period charm as well as being found in the main sitting room and kitchen breakfast room. Bakelite light switches can be found in some areas.
The main hallway is wide and spacious with the staircase as a central feature that snakes upwards. There are understairs cupboards and a convenient hanging space for outdoor clothes and belongings. The sitting room has tall bay windows which allows the light to flood in to this large and bright room with its outstanding cast iron fireplace and colourful tiled surround.

The other side of the hallway is a delightful airy kitchen breakfast room with its ample space for a dining table along with the cream 'Shaker' style base and wall units that contain the integral slimline dishwasher. The black 5 ring gas hob and oven sits between a light wooden worksurface with cream splashback tiles above. Leading from here is a doorway into the larger than average utility room with Belfast sink and wooden drainer, a double doored floor to ceiling pantry and storage cupboard, space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Beyond this room is a further reception room which could be utilised as a dining room, sun room, play room, snug or office space. Versatile and practical with bi-fold doors that lead directly into the garden and outside seating and entertainment area.

First Floor

There are two double bedrooms on this level, one with bay windows and the other that overlooks the rear garden with an ensuite shower room. Both are bright and airy with generous amounts of built in cupboards. Between these two rooms is another shower room with a white suite.

Second Floor

This floor has flexible accomodation which currently is purposed as a large double bedroom that overlooks the rear garden and has a white ensuite bathroom. There is a separate shower room with toilet and basin accessed from the landing and a large sitting room that overlooks the front of the property and could easily be used as a fourth double bedroom. It has a decked balcony with metal railings where you can sit and enjoy the beautiful views towards the sea and beyond.

Rear Garden

A delightful outside area accessed from either the secure wooden double doors that separate the rear garden from the driveway, or the kitchen or the rear reception room. A raised paved area has a pergula above and wooden planters along one edge which gives an informal outside dining and entertainment area. Adjacent to this are outside power sockets and several external lights. A short flight of steps lead to the main lawn, with its borders complete with plants and shrubs either side, and 'stepping stones' across the grassed area to the large outside store at the rear of the garden.
