Welcome to this charming period cottage located on Albany Road in East Cowes, boasting picturesque harbour views that will surely captivate your heart.

Three Bedroom Former Coastguard Cottage - This mid terrace Grade II listed home is extremely well presented throughout and has stripped floorboards in the dining and sitting room, period fireplaces in both reception rooms and the main bedrooms, reflecting its history. Character features also include the gothic style windows and 'latch key' internal door locks. A modern kitchen and bathroom have been installed and there is the bonus of off road parking.
The property has been a successful holiday let but would also be a fantastic home.

History - This row of historical buildings was built in 1874 and has a commanding view out over the harbour entrance. Forward thinking for its time, with a 'cavity wall build system' introduced from Europe and championed by Prince Albert himself.

Interior - A quaint and characterful cottage, which is very well presented, retains period features but has had many recent upgrades. The bathroom and kitchen (Howdens) were newly installed in summer 2024 as well as a new gas boiler. Decor is light and neutral, painted in Farrow and Ball paint.

Ground Floor:
Entering into the kitchen, with its grey modern base and wall units that have an integrated SMEG dishwasher, Hoover washing machine, tall fridge and freezer and a DeLonghi gas cooker, large ceramic 'Belfast' sink, this kitchen has a 'cottage' feel with all the modern conveniences.
A fabulous modern bathroom has a fully 'scallop shaped' tiled shower cubicle, wc, stylish sink and a freestanding 'TubbyTub' bath, a particularly deep bathing experience that retains the heat longer than a cast iron bath.

First Floor:
Three bedrooms, two double and a single bedroom/office.
The principle bedroom at the front of the property has three built in cupboards and a feature fireplace. The two rear bedrooms have fantastic views out over the harbour with the double bedroom also having a feature fireplace. All rooms are cosy and welcoming.

Exterior - The low maintenance driveway has parking for a vehicle and a short flight of steps leads into the building.
There is a raised decked area accessed off the sitting room and gives an excellent vantage point to enjoy the ever changing panoramic views across the West Cowes and the Solent. The garden itself is mainly lawn with some mature plants including a palm tree.

East Cowes - East Cowes is home to historic Osborne House, the holiday residence of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, now an English Heritage property available for visits throughout the year and has a golf club within its grounds. The town itself has many shops and amenities including a major supermarket, pubs and restaurants. The Esplanade has a cafe, park and tennis court, as well as the Red Funnel car ferry to Southampton. A short trip on the chain ferry, known locally as 'The Floaty', will transport you to Cowes and all its further delights.
