3 Bed Cottage in Gurnard

About this property

This delightful cottage is ideally situated within a few minutes walk of the sea in Gurnard. Here you can enjoy paddling, swimming, boating or relaxing on a beautiful quiet beach. A popular local cafe, 'The Gurnard Press' and nearby village pubs provide refreshments. There is easy access to the western side of the island with its tranquil sandy coves, or you could visit the nearby Newtown National Nature Reserve – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A wonderful area to enjoy breathtaking walks or for a spot of bird watching. The popular town of Cowes is a short drive away or 30 minute walk along the seafront promenade. Cowes is a small-town, famous as a sailing centre with cobbled streets, lovely small shops and a choice of great restaurants.

This uniquely designed detached house is clad in Siberian Larch and offers lovely sea views from many of the rooms. On entering a front hallway opens into a beautifully furnished large dining room where you can enjoy family meals, next to the windows overlooking the garden. The Dining Room is open to the light and airy lounge with its above ceiling height windows, allowing you to feel like you are outside while in complete comfort. The lounge features comfy seating, Smart TV/DVD, a traditional wood burner and glimpses of the sea. A large glass door opens out onto the terrace. In the kitchen, you will find it fully equipped with a gas hob, double oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and air fryer. The washing machine and tumble dryer are housed in a separate utility room next to a ground-floor WC. Exploring the ground floor further you will find a double bedroom with a king-size bed and an en-suite bathroom complete with shower over the bath and a WC. Going up to the first floor the first thing you will see are the large windows overlooking the sea. Here you can relax and watch the yachts and boats passing or curl up with a good book. Adjoining this room is a balcony which is an attractive spot to sit in on warm evenings. On the first floor you will find two further cosy bedrooms, each with en-suite shower rooms. One of which is a twin room perfectly accommodated for children, with its own small balcony. The second one is a double room with a king-size bed and sea views. An additional folding bed can also be provided if the travel cot has not been requested.

Stepping outside, you can relax in the secluded fenced garden which has a sunny terrace with garden furniture and a gas BBQ so you can enjoy dining al fresco. Parking is available for two cars.
