Property description
Built in the 1880’s, this unique home provides you with some of the most amazing sea views; once you relax on the terrace and simply stare out to sea you will understand what we mean!
The dining room, with double doors leading to the garden, and the lounge, both at the front of the house, face the sea. An elegant period staircase leads onto the first floor landing and two of the four double bedrooms have showers. Enjoy stunning views of the sea from every bedroom and watch the sun rise, or relax on the charming balustrade balcony that corners the master bedroom.
A lawned garden greets you at the front of the house, which then leads to a staggered bank to enclose the rear of the home. The bank is landscaped and has a relaxing waterfall feature which works very naturally with the stonework of this wonderful period home. The extensive driveway leads to a double garage tucked away from the front of the house. Accessed by steps to the side of the garage, the roof provides a magnificent terrace for family gatherings or moments of solitude we all wish to enjoy.
Living a stone’s throw from the sea and all its glory, from the views to a gentle walk to the beach, it is a lifestyle most of us would love to achieve.

Holmcliff has been our home since 1983 where our family have grown up and is only the second time it has been on the market in 79 years. It nestles in the cliff at Shanklin and is a one off property. We fell in love with the Victorian charm which we have retained and the breath-taking sea views that the house enjoys – 180 degree panoramic views of the bay. You can fall asleep listening to the waves breaking on the sea shore and wake up to amazing sunrises. We have treasured memories of our time spent here, but as our family have now left home it is time for us to downsize. Holmcliff is welcoming and we know the next owners will enjoy this wonderful house as much as we have.
