This charming detached home, located in the tranquil enclave of St. Lawrence Undercliff on the Isle of Wight, has been a cherished residence for 30 years. Recently enhanced with an air source heat pump and solar panels, it balances traditional character with modern energy efficiency. Set within a two-acre plot in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property is surrounded by mature trees and wildlife, including red squirrels and diverse bird species. Situated on a quiet, closed-off road, it offers exceptional privacy and serenity. Elevated to capture sweeping views of the English Channel, the home's layout is designed to bring the outdoors in. The spacious sitting room, with its brick fireplace and wood-burning stove, opens to sea views, while the adjacent dining room and study also enjoy scenic outlooks. The kitchen, styled with cottage charm, overlooks the rear garden and connects to a practical boot room and modern shower room. Upstairs, the two main double bedrooms open onto a wide south-facing balcony, perfect for enjoying sunrises and sea views. Two additional bedrooms and a cloakroom provide flexible accommodation, while a large attic room offers further potential. The expansive grounds include a timber workshop, a curved driveway with ample parking, a single garage, and lawned areas ideal for relaxation. Close to Castlehaven, Binnel Bay, and coastal walking routes, and with nearby Ventnor's vibrant shops and Botanic Gardens, this home is a rare opportunity to own a private coastal retreat in a stunning island setting.

What the Owner says:

This property is full of character & has been our cosy home for 32 years, the garden though has always been special, the true residents being the wildlife, a wonder throughout each year. Day or night it can be magical. Being involved in water sports the move here was primarily for the sailing conditions, some of the best in the UK. Also the memorable walks, inland over downs or the rugged coastal routes, all directly from the house. It has become an oasis of quiet tranquility in a crazy world.
