A rare opportunity to acquire this charming Grade II listed period cottage that was historically part of The Bell Public House. Situated close to the River Medina the property is extremely conveniently placed for accessing the various sailing facilities of Cowes as well as mainland ferry links with the floating bridge link to Cowes being nearby at the end of Medina Road. The property has been modernised by the current owners and provides spacious and characterful accommodation that is arranged over three levels. Whilst original features remain, the refurbishment has utilised a range of quality reclaimed items, such as the marble butler sink and terracotta tiles in the kitchen and the copper wash basins in the main bathroom adding to the character of the property. Cowes town centre with its shops and restaurants is within easy walking distance. The second floor provides impressive views across Cowes Harbour and the Solent whilst there are glimpses of the River from the ground and first floors.
