Description
This large Victorian villa is located in Sandown, a popular tourist destination for visitors with it's sandy beaches, countryside and nature walks and classic seaside attractions such as Sandown Pier, Dinosaur Isle and Browns Golf Course.
The property was previously run as a guest house with eight en-suite lettings rooms in the main house, however the current owners now occupy this as their family home and have created four fantastic letting rooms within the adjoining and self-contained annex accessed at the side of the house. The letting rooms are accompanied by an attractive and sheltered courtyard with plenty of space for guest seating.
The main house has retained some Victorian features, such as high ceilings and ornate coving and presents well as a spacious family home, with its own enclosed private garden and ample parking.
In readiness for the 2022 season, the letting rooms have been recently refurbished and have proven popular with visitors, offering them the freedom to be independent and enjoy the short walk to the beautiful sandy beach which stretches from the red cliffs of Yaverland to the adjacent seaside town of Shanklin, with a fine selection of seafront eateries to enjoy.
The property is extremely versatile allowing buyers to maximise their income by using both the annex and the main house for guests or enjoy a large family home with the benefit of fewer letting rooms. A great proposition for buyers seeking additional income to accompany their home.
