LARCH HOUSE

Designed to maximise the Solent views, the house is arranged over three floors with extensive large windows also taking in the southerly outlook over the garden and adjacent golf course. Constructed in 2008, the house benefits from a ground floor extension and meticulous refurbishment in 2023. There is now a fantastic large open plan kitchen living room, an enlarged first floor balcony, as well as Juliet balconies to all bedrooms, with an array of other enhancements creating a really high quality family home. New triple glazed ultra insulated windows and doors with oak and walnut interiors and aluminium exteriors were fitted throughout. A superb new kitchen and bathrooms have been installed as well as new flooring including Amtico to the ground floor, hardwood timber flooring to the first floor and new carpets elsewhere. Externally, new fascias and soffits were fitted along with zinc rainwater goods and larch cladding.

The house is highly efficient and in addition to the triple glazing, other eco credentials include photovoltaic panels and a rainwater harvesting system which serves the toilets and an outside tap.

World renowned for its sailing activities, Cowes has a good range of shops and restaurants as well as a high speed ferry service to Southampton (approximately 24 minutes) with onward trains direct to London.
