This characterful period property is believed to date from 1780 and is Listed Grade II. The accommodation is arranged over 3 floors (with a two storey and a more modern single storey extensions to the rear.) A partly walled courtyard garden to the rear of the property provides an attractive outdoor dining and seating area with stone terraces, well-stocked borders and an impressive Magnolia tree. To the front of the building is a small lock up shop with independent access providing income potential. The property is well presented and has a good range of characterful period features including an elegant staircase, sash windows and some attractive fireplaces. It has also been modernised in recent years to include such features as a Smallbone kitchen. There are sea glimpses from the first floor drawing room and good views from the second floor principal bedroom over the harbour entrance and The Solent.

The property enjoys an enviable location within the Conservation Area of Cowes, a short walk from the seafront, shops and principal Yacht Clubs. Internationally renowned for sailing, Cowes has extensive facilities for water-based activity in addition to a good range of shops and restaurants. Being a major Island gateway, there is a fast passenger ferry to Southampton taking about 23 minutes and a car ferry from East Cowes also to Southampton taking about 55 minutes. The island itself has areas of unspoilt countryside and coastline where a wide variety of land and water recreational pursuits can be enjoyed.
