Description

This four-bedroom semi-detached house is located at the end of a serene cul-de-sac, providing impressive views over Ventnor and the surrounding sea. Built in the late Victorian era, the property retains many original features but is in need of renovation, offering a perfect blank canvas for those looking to customize their living space. The layout includes spacious rooms with significant potential for reconfiguration to suit modern lifestyle needs. The entryway leads into an inner hallway that connects to various living areas, including a dining room that overlooks the westerly aspect and features a charming fireplace. The adjacent kitchen provides practical space with existing units and access to a lean-to storage area, ideal for further development or updating. One of the property's highlights is the versatile fourth bedroom currently used as an office but could easily serve as a playroom or additional dining area. This room benefits from ample natural light thanks to double-aspect windows that frame views of both the garden and sea. The lounge serves as another focal point, showcasing original cornicing and a bay window that invites abundant daylight while framing coastal vistas. Beyond this room, a sunroom offers an inviting transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, perfect for enjoying quiet moments or entertaining. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms share the same panoramic outlooks, enhancing their appeal. The master bedroom has built-in wardrobes and seating in its bay window designed for relaxing while taking in striking views of Ventnor’s coastline. The remaining bedrooms provide flexible accommodation options for family or guests. Outside, the garden presents another opportunity for investment with terraced levels featuring mature shrubs and open areas that boast outstanding sea views. This outdoor setting not only enhances privacy but also invites potential landscaping projects that could redefine it into an idyllic retreat. Positioned conveniently close to local amenities such as independent shops and recreational facilities including bowls and tennis courts, this property is well-situated for both lifestyle enjoyment and potential value enhancement through renovation. Whether you envision crafting your dream home or seeking an investment opportunity in a desirable location, this residence holds substantial promise with its combination of character, space, and location.
