A lovely house, modern, spacious and very clean. Nice quiet residential location, easy off road parking on the drive directly outside the front door. Splendid kitchen and combined living area. Modern bathroom with bath and shower upstrais, additional shower and toilet downstairs. Close access to the beach suitable for bathing. Approx 2km pleasant walk along the esplanade into Cowes.
