Description

This notable family residence, constructed in 1923, occupies a substantial 0.37-acre plot in the desirable area of Swains Road, Bembridge. Just a short walk from beautiful sandy beaches and the vibrant village center, this property presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. The Gables features a unique heritage, with principal rooms adorned with stunning wood panelling salvaged from the SS Empress Queen, providing both character and potential historical value to future enhancements.

Inside, natural light floods through well-proportioned living spaces distributed across three floors. Key highlights include an inviting sitting room with an Inglenook fireplace, a spacious dining room, and a kitchen/breakfast area that could be modernized to create a more contemporary layout.

The large garden space offers various options for landscaping improvements or extensions (subject to relevant permissions), enhancing its outdoor appeal. The Gables represents not just a home but an investment in one of the Isle of Wight’s most attractive locations – ideal for families seeking both tranquillity and a strong community vibe.
