The detached house has a comfortable layout including a large sitting room, kitchen and separate dining room with five bedrooms, one of which is on the ground floor doubling as a study and a further two bathrooms, one of which being en-suite. The gardens have a sunny aspect and have been planted to provide an attractive outlook and a balcony on the first floor with southern aspect is a great place to enjoy a morning coffee and sea view. There is a large garage and utility room as well as off road parking for several cars, a premium in this part of Ryde.
