Outside is a communal car park with allocated spaces and visitor spaces, plus a garden area with somewhere to sit, and also two large clotheslines, ideal for drying washing.
Situated in a tucked away position, the property boasts an enviable position within the heart of Cowes which is a magnet for the sailing community and plays host to the annual world-famous Cowes Week as well as being the starting point for the Round the Island Yacht race. The property is just a short stroll to the Red Jet to Southampton, the wonderful Esplanade, boutique shops and convenience stores, independent restaurants, bars, and cafes that Cowes has to offer. The town’s ‘twin’, East Cowes, is reached by chain ferry across the Medina estuary where there is a regular Red Funnel car ferry service to Southampton. East Cowes is also home to Queen Victoria’s magnificent former holiday residence, Osborne House, where you can enjoy a piece of British history and the rolling acres of the magnificent estate.
