LOCATION
The Windows is located in the much sought-after Swains Road, in the centre of Bembridge, a popular town on the north-east coast of the Isle of Wight. Bembridge is known for its sailing clubs, access to good state and private schools and has an active year-round community. A selection of useful shops, hairdressers and the village church are all within a few minutes’ walk. So too is the beach and coastal walks heading both east and west. Mainland connections can be found within twenty minutes in Ryde and Fishbourne.
THE PROPERTY
The Windows is an attractive Edwardian house, built in 1910 with later additions. Much of the house remains as it was and period features are in abundance: a wealth of windows, original fireplaces with alcoves, exposed beams, terracotta roof tiles, wooden floorboards and arched doorways, typical of this time. The house is set back from the road behind tall mature trees which offer privacy from the road. The gravel drive has ‘in and out’ access and there is plenty of parking space for several cars. A single garage could be re-instated if this were required. The interiors of the house offer a combination of period style with modern day comfort and the house has been maintained as a family home at its heart. The garden at the rear of the property is surrounded by mature trees and provides a beautiful, enclosed semi-circle around the central south-facing lawn. Terraces are at the side and rear of the house and there are several ponds that add to the character of the outdoor space.
