The principal bedroom also features a vaulted ceiling, extensive glazing and an en suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms overlook the rear garden and are served by a spacious family bathroom.

Outside, the property offers a block paved driveway, double garage and a series of low maintenance terraces providing multiple seating areas perfect for enjoying the sea view. A detached studio with its own terrace, storage and shower room offers excellent versatility as guest accommodation, a home office or gym.

What the Owner says:
Our home on the Island has been so much more than just a second property for us - it has been our sanctuary, our reset button and a place filled with wonderful memories. The house works in every season - light-filled and full of energy in the summer and a cosy peaceful retreat in the cooler months.

There is something about crossing the Solent - the air seems fresher, the skies wider and life instantly calmer. Whether it's walks along the coast, lunches in welcoming local restaurants or taking in the magnificent sunsets, every visit feels like a proper escape.
