Description

Set in an elevated position and surrounded by rolling countryside and enchanting woodland, Sunnydale is a two-bedroom single-storey dwelling, with gardens and private parking and is overflowing with potential.

Believed to be a former mission hut, set in an elevated position among the trees in an idyllic location on the outskirts of Shanklin, Sunnydale has been historically extended to create a characterful home with a flowing layout. Steps lead up from the parking area to the property, which really enhances privacy, as do the surrounding mature trees and well-established planting. The original building is constructed with a single-skin, which makes it suitable for cash buyers only, and offers a significant opportunity for improvement and updating (subject to any necessary consents). Currently, the accommodation comprises a welcoming porch, a kitchen, a lounge/diner, a utility room, two double bedrooms and a bathroom, with an additional garden cabin, complete with plumbing for a bathroom, which offers further potential for a variety of uses.

Set on the outskirts of Shanklin, the property is just a short drive from the bustling town centre which boasts a wonderful mix of independent shops, cafes and restaurants and a spectacular, sandy coastline. Stunning places to walk and explore lay moments from the property; these include the picturesque Old Village, Sibden Hill & Batts Copse nature Reserve and America Woods. The local train station provides a regular service to the fast mainland passenger link in Ryde and the train station is also conveniently situated on the Red Squirrel Trail cycle track which runs from Sandown to Wroxall.
