Property description
What a fabulous chance to buy a wonderful home in a fabulous location in Shanklin. The house itself has been owned by the current owner since 1939 and retains many of its beautiful original features.
It needs upgrading inside and the garden needs transforming into an amazing space to enjoy with the whole family. Around four or five years ago it has had a new roof put on and a gas fired central heating system put in.
The decoration, kitchen and bathroom could do with an upgrade but overall, it’s a great chance for someone to go in and transform it. The house is full of charm and character and situated close to the town, beaches, local schools and transport links.
The rear garden is huge and also comes with an extra plot of land which is being sold together with the house and once cleared will be fabulous. Or there is even a investment opportunity here with the extra parcel of land as it could be sold off and built on.
After you have completed your refurbishment, the finished article will be a house with a garden like no other in this area and will be a superb family home for an enthusiastic buyer who is prepared to put in the hours, hard work and imagination. Maybe you could even arrange for car parking at the front subject to planning approval.
Please refer to the footnote regarding the services and appliances.What the Owner says:
Our father has recently moved into a lovely retirement home after living here since 1939. He was a war child evacuated to this property when he was just ten years old and was left the house by the original owner and lived here all his life. The house has been a beautiful home for him and we know he is sad to leave it with so many wonderful family memories. The house does require up-grading inside and an enthusiastic gardener to bring the whole place to life. We wish you well and hope you enjoy this lovely home just like our father has for seventy-five years.
