Beautifully presented following comprehensive refurbishment and extension in recent years, this three/four bedroom house boasts period character, open plan living space and an enclosed, low maintenance garden. Available unfurnished and for a Long Let from January 2024
1 Harbour Villas has been sensitively renovated in recent years to offer a well-appointed family home. It has a wealth of period features and quality, such as original doors, flooring and fireplaces in addition to all new uPVC windows, bi-folding doors, app enabled Nest thermostat-controlled heating system, as well as a stunning open plan kitchen/dining room.
There are three good sized double bedrooms with a fourth single/study in addition to two bathrooms, one of which being ensuite. With off-road parking for two cars to the front, the gardens to the rear are low-maintenance and landscaped to provide a pleasant and colourful outlook. The harbour and sea wall with walks to St Helens Duver can be found at the bottom of the road, just a short walk from the house.
The small but vibrant village of St Helens has two village shops, two restaurants, a pub and a coffee shop, together with an antiquarian bookshop and excellent access to Bembridge Harbour, (approximately 600m distant) with extensive mooring facilities and sailing clubs at Bembridge and Brading Haven. There is easy access to a range of more extensive facilities and mainland transport links at Ryde (approximately 3 miles away) as well as a number of very good beaches nearby in Bembridge, St. Helens and Seaview.
