Accommodation
In a sought-after elevated coastal position with incredible sea views the former Upper Chine School playing fields are bordered with mature trees in a semi-rural area on the outskirts of Shanklin Old Village. Each plot extends some 70m in length and up to 35m wide and has planning permission for a large family home with detached garages. The houses are substantial each one over 300m2 of gross internal area and with superb open plan layouts and generous room dimensions designed to take in the sea and countryside views. Aluminum bi-folding doors and uPVC windows both in anthracite grey in addition to hard wood floors on the ground floors and carpets upstairs provide a high specification and quality finish throughout. Houses are offered with a 10 year build warranty and some choice of kitchens, bathrooms and internal finish subject to negotiation and contract. With underfloor heating powered by ground source heat pumps the houses will achieve a high ‘B’ rating for energy performance.
Situated on the edge of picturesque Shanklin Old Village, within a short walk to Rylstone Gardens and moments from the cliff steps leading down to Shanklin’s beaches or along the coastal path to Luccombe, Bonchurch and Ventnor. The amenities of Shanklin, including a range of shops, restaurants and theatre are a short walk away. A train service to Ryde provides access to passenger ferry services to Portsmouth, connecting with trains to London, the entire journey time taking two and a half hours. There are also plenty of beaches, bays and coves nearby and there are stunning walks upon the Luccombe and Wroxall Downs or along the coastal paths. The area has an excellent micro-climate and nearby Ventnor has botanical gardens, further award-winning restaurants and a fish market in its sandy bay.
