Gills Cliff Road, Ventnor, Isle of Wight PO38 1LH
£750,000 via Fine & Country, Isle of Wight: 01983 213095
This impressive, four-bedroom property on the outskirts of the historic coastal town of Ventnor is situated in an elevated position, set back from the road, affording stunning sea views across the English Channel.
It makes an incredible first impression upon approach, with a south-facing front garden displaying exotic botanicals including palm trees, beautiful bay windows, a balcony, a sun terrace and the façade finished in white, altogether creating an overall effect that's evocative of a Mediterranean villa. Further benefits to the front include a driveway with ample parking, plus two garages that have the added advantage of solar panels, currently earning an annual sum of £300 for the homeowner. Once inside the fabulous location of the property can be further appreciated. The main entrance is to the side of the property, allowing for three reception rooms in the best position at the front of the home, all overlooking the spectacular sea view. There's the formal dining room, with a square bay window, the sitting room, that enjoys a fabulous, wide, gently curved bay that really maximises the light and views, as well as opening up the space inside. Then there is the breakfast room, that has French doors allowing you to step out onto the gorgeous sun trap terrace where you can really feel like you're in the south of France, dining alfresco overlooking the shimmering sea. At the rear of the home is the kitchen, boasting practical and stylish granite countertops with an island that adds workspace, storage and a breakfast bar. The gorgeous Rangemaster oven was installed less than two years ago, and the pretty bay window makes a lovely feature. There's access to the rear garden, which boasts well established vegetable beds plus a shed and a greenhouse, as well as a decking area to sit and enjoy the fruits of your labours. Concluding the ground floor accommodation is a study, cloakroom and large walk in store. To the first floor are four double bedrooms, three of which boast their own ensuite bathrooms – a rare advantage indeed and means that the fourth bedroom has sole use of the adjacent shower room, that itself could easily become an ensuite as well. The principal bedroom is truly special, boasting its own balcony where those amazing views can be enjoyed from the moment you awake and of course, the ensuite, that benefits from a luxurious corner bathtub.
What the Owner says:We bought this house eighteen years ago when we fell in love with the 180 degree sea view. We fitted a new roof and a high specification, enduring kitchen and have since been committed to continuously updating it over the years, including installing a new boiler and range cooker two years ago, making it an ideal turnkey property.
The location of the house is ideal, with Ventnor having its own microclimate and enjoying warmer temperatures than the rest of the UK.
