Property description
Back in the 1900’s houses were built to last and had many beautiful features. Over the years many of these houses have had to be refurbished; some have been stripped of their character and unrecognisable from the day they were first built.
However, now and again we find wonderful examples of these properties which have not been spoilt and still have the stunning features that they were originally blessed with all those years ago.
The house we have here has been occupied by the previous owner for sixty-four years and retained all its character with Victorian picture rails, high skirting boards, original fire-places and balustrades. It’s almost a museum piece and priced to sell too.
We’re sure this wonderful four-bedroomed home is going to attract a great deal of interest and it is ready and waiting for someone to come in and stamp their mark on it with their own taste and decoration.
Of course it needs modernising but whoever is lucky enough to buy this lovely family home will keep its character and enjoy the workmanship from over one hundred years ago.
What the Owner says:
This home comes with a wartime story where a couple in the 40’s fell in love. Our lovely gentleman, a Shanklin boy, met his Lancashire lass whilst stationed ‘up North’ during the war. They married in 1946 and after living with his aunt for a few years they moved into this house and spent a wonderful life here. A few years ago, our lovely gentleman passed away leaving his beautiful wife alone. The house is too big for her now and she has happily moved into a residential home where she can get the support and care she needs. It’s such a lovely story behind this home which is full of happy memories and the family are sad to let it go as they spent so many years visiting our lovely couple on the beautiful Isle of Wight.
