Maison De 4 Chambres Avec Logement Supplémentaire à Vendre à Bembridge

Tucked away behind double gates and just moments from the beach, this superb property is one of Bembridge’s most enchanting and historic homes. Believed to date back to the 1700s, this beautifully preserved thatched cottage sits within approximately 0.75 acres of mature, secluded gardens and includes a charming, detached gate lodge, The Hermitage. Together, they form a rare and idyllic coastal retreat offering privacy, character, and exceptional versatility.

Approached via a private driveway, the cottage immediately impresses with its timeless thatched roof, leaded windows, and tranquil setting. Inside, the property is rich with period charm, particularly the delightful sitting room, where a feature fireplace with an old bread oven opening, exposed beam, and an array of leaded windows at varying levels create a wonderfully atmospheric living space. A cosy library snug with triple‑aspect garden views provides the perfect spot to unwind with a book.

The ground‑floor main bedroom suite is a standout feature, light, spacious, and beautifully appointed, with two sets of French doors opening to the front courtyard. Extensive built‑in wardrobes and a generous en‑suite bathroom complete this serene private retreat. A welcoming dining hall, spacious hallway, shower room, and a well‑equipped kitchen/breakfast room, with sleek white cabinetry, composite worktops, garden views, and direct access to the morning terrace, complete the ground floor. An office and utility room add further practicality. Upstairs, two charming and spacious double bedrooms with characterful windows are served by a modern family bathroom.

The Hermitage, constructed in 2002, offers superb guest or holiday‑let accommodation. With wood flooring, underfloor heating, and its own terrace and garden area, it includes an inviting open‑plan living/dining room with fireplace, a fitted kitchen, double bedroom, and shower room. Its independence and comfort make it ideal for extended family, visitors, or income generation.

The gardens surrounding both properties are a true sanctuary, private, mature, and thoughtfully landscaped. Sweeping lawns, established shrubs, stone well, and multiple seating areas create a peaceful outdoor haven. A large timber workshop/chalet with power and light offers excellent scope for hobbies, storage, or creative use. Ample gravel parking and additional gated access enhance convenience.

Despite its seclusion, the property is perfectly positioned within walking distance of Bembridge village, renowned for its vibrant community and excellent amenities. Local shops include a butcher, bakery, delicatessens, fishmonger, and farm shops, alongside inviting cafés and restaurants. The harbour, marina, and two sailing clubs, Bembridge and Brading Haven, make this an exceptional location for boating enthusiasts. Lane End beach and local shops are just a short stroll away.

This superb property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a historic coastal home of exceptional charm, privacy, and flexibility, an ideal sanctuary for those seeking tranquillity within easy reach of village life and the sea.
