Property description

Charm, character and history, this stone cottage has all three of those in abundance. This former coastguard cottage has plenty to see and a lot more space inside than you may first imagine. There is off road parking to the front along with three attractive stone storage sheds, in bygone years these cottages were built to face the sea and this was once the rear yard to the cottage. Once inside the lounge area is light and bright, catching the sunshine, the large window overlooks the garden and the bowling green beyond. There is ample room for furnishings, and with the modern kitchen area that has built in storage, work top and a tastefully tiled wall; it is perfect for socialising with friends and family. The current owners have added a mezzanine floor, if you take a peep out of the Velux windows you can see towards Christchurch Bay and the western approach to the Solent. This area is very versatile and offers an exciting extra space. There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, the flexible accommodation in this home is great if you enjoy having guests. The double glazing adds to its cosiness in the winter months. The bathroom has been upgraded by the current owners and with a 'Carronite' bath, multiple towel rail and a Kudos shower cubical with self clean glass and underfloor night-time heating everything is ready for a new owner. The sunny garden is the final touch, catching the sunshine into the evening this is the perfect place to take in an Island sunset whilst enjoying a glass of something chilled.

What the Owner says:

Over the last 38 years we have loved coming to stay here and also running it as a successful holiday let. We have promoted the cottage as being in lovely countryside and it has been a constant joy to receive letters from guests who have really enjoyed their stay.

It is the perfect location for getting off the ferry and being in your own home within a few minutes. We loved the charm and character of the stone cottage.

With the lovely garden to enjoy, the beach just a few minutes away on foot and the shops to hand it has it all and the years here have flown by.
