Description

This historic Station House, originally constructed in 1877 and operational as St Helens Train Station from 1882 until 1953, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and redevelopment. Spanning approximately 12.6 acres, including marshland with abundant wildlife and a disused tennis court ripe for reimagining, this property is rich in potential. The main residence retains many original Victorian features and offers a spacious layout with seven bedrooms, several of which are ensuite, along with a self-contained first-floor flat that provides additional living space or rental income potential. The expansive grounds include mature gardens, areas of woodland, and access to scenic routes along the former railway line. Given its proximity to St Helens and Bembridge, the property allows for delightful coastal walks and easy access to local amenities. The existing structures, including garages and workshops, could be renovated or repurposed to enhance functionality. The station's rich heritage can be honored through thoughtful renovations while introducing modern comforts to create a truly exceptional family home or investment opportunity.
