Property description
Stunning sea views & impressive sunsets are a huge benefit to the position of this chalet bungalow.
The property has been in the family for some 30 years and does now give an opportunity for a buyer wanting to be within walking distance of the popular sea front of Gurnard to secure this outstanding position.
Views of the bay are visible from both of its principal receptions rooms, as well as the sun room and the first floor bedroom.
The property, although very livable in its current condition, would benefit from some refurbishments to maximize its aspect and size of plot. Both front and rear gardens are both mainly laid to lawn with bordering shrubs, but dependent on a buyer’s needs and relevant planning permissions, this may give huge potential to a buyer wanting to extend the current footprint of the home.
There is rear access to the home, where there is a parking bay and detached brick-built double garage with a built-in inspection pit & electric roller doors. Due to the nature of area, this space could be used as a fabulous area for wet weather gear or a boat should buyers need or simply for your car as originally built!
Many of the rooms in the home give a dual-aspect view ensuring when you are not watching the deluge of activity The Solent has to offer, you are able to admire your garden space from both front and rear. On the first floor, there is also walk-in storage area which has been very convenient.
What the Owner says:
After living in many places in the country, we arrived in Gurnard and found that it was the best possible place to live. After residing in two parts of the village, we found that this home is the perfect place to live and I have been happy here for nearly 30 years.
The views are constantly changing, always beautiful and unequalled anywhere, with many different types of life on the water - water-skiing, wind-surfing, kite-surfing and the sailing at all levels, of course, not to mention ocean-going shipping, sometimes lit up at night.
Then, of course, there are the sunsets!! A world travel writer once said that the two most beautiful places in the world to see the sun go down were somewhere in China and Gurnard Bay on the Isle of Wight - and all this for free!
Gurnard is a very active village, with lots going on. It has an incredibly well-stocked village shop, and I also have the papers and milk delivered. There is a great pub just down the road and a bus stop at the bottom of the garden.
There is also a very special group of neighbours that are always there and who are willing to help if needed.
