4 bed Flat For Sale £350,000
At approximately 1500 square feet, this truly deceptive and immaculately presented four-bedroom apartment in this attractive late Victorian property is well worth a close look. Also includes a private garden and parking and is located towards the outskirts of Totland Bay.
The current owners have refurbished the apartment in recent whilst taking great care to retain as many of its period features, yet tastefully modernising the kitchen and bathrooms to create a smart and homely feel with stylish neutral tones throughout. The windows have been replaced with modern double glazing which compliments the original styling, and the gas central heating system has been overhauled as well. There are just two apartments in Bourne House as well as a cottage to one side. The accommodation is arranged on both the first and second floors and provides well proportioned bright and airy rooms including a lovely hallway with a feature split level staircase. The well appointed kitchen offers ample storage and built in cooking facilities together with an attractive corner bay window. The generous lounge/dining room has a multi fuel stove and enjoys a double aspect to the side and rear. There is a useful utility complete with a WC, and two double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room. A family bathroom completes the accommodation on this floor. To the top floor there are two large double bedrooms and access to a walk-in loft storage area, which offers great potential to create further living space if required, subject to obtaining any planning and/or building regulation approval. Outside, there is an enclosed area of private garden offering space to sit and relax together with a separate parking area adjacent with ample space for two cars.
