Experience a stylish and spacious getaway in a beautifully converted apartment within a Victorian house, offering southern views of lush gardens and the pool from a bright, airy double-aspect room. Begin your visit with a stroll through the historic Shanklin Old Village, just 0.5 miles away, where quaint thatched cottages, cosy tea rooms, and charming boutiques await. Explore Shanklin Chine (0.8 miles); this lush gorge is adorned with waterfalls and rare plants, and the evening illuminations bring this picturesque spot to life. Alternatively, take the scenic coastal walks along Shanklin and Ventnor Downs (5.6 miles) for breath-taking views. For a day of adventure, head to Blackgang Chine amusement park, just 8.6 miles away, and discover life-sized dinosaurs, pirates, and themed attractions. For high-energy fun, visit Sandham Gardens (3.5 miles), which offers activities like sky nets, mini-golf, and a splash park —perfect for a day out with family and friends.

To access this delightful apartment, there is an external steel staircase to the left of the garages, which leads you up 15 steps to the entrance. Once inside, make your way to the open-plan family room. The newly renovated kitchen offers a southern view of the gardens and pool, providing the perfect backdrop to enjoy the evening sun. With modern finishes and plenty of space, the kitchen is ideal for culinary enthusiasts, while the dining area creates a cosy setting for family meals. The lounge area features comfortable seating, with two sofas and a TV, perfect for relaxing, unwinding, and catching up on your favourite movies or shows. As you continue through the apartment, you'll find the first double bedroom equipped with a comfortable double bed, bunk beds for children, and enough room for a cot. This makes it an ideal space for families. The newly updated en-suite bathroom includes a full size bath, shower over, basin, and WC. The second double bedroom is a serene retreat with a roof window that captures the morning sun, creating a bright and inviting ambience. This room also boasts a modern en-suite bathroom with a full-size bath, shower over, basin, and WC.
