This property offers a unique opportunity to purchase five immaculate one and two bedroom apartments in the heart of the picturesque coastal town of Shanklin. Originally built as a Victorian hotel, this substantial property has recently undergone a total renovation and refit to an extremely high specification resulting in these five, wonderful holiday homes.

On the ground floor are three, self-contained apartments, respectively named ‘Ash', ‘Bay' and ‘Fir'. ‘Ash' is a spacious, tastefully designed two-bedroom apartment with a fully equipped, modern kitchen and open plan kitchen and lounge area. There is a main bedroom with en-suite shower room, a twin room with elevated views over the town, and a contemporary family bathroom. The French doors in the lounge area let in an abundance of light, and on sunny days you can throw them open and step onto the private terrace – perfect for alfresco dining. Both ‘Bay' and ‘Fir' have one double bedroom, each with a shower room, wonderfully light and airy living areas with French doors leading onto private, paved terraces, as well as stunning kitchens.

On the first floor there are two further two-bedroom apartments, named ‘Cedar' and ‘Elm'. Both properties benefit from fantastic, south facing balconies with far-reaching views. The main bedroom in ‘Cedar' benefits from an en-suite shower room plus there's a further family bathroom in the main apartment. It has a lovely, spacious open plan living and dining area with French doors leading onto the large balcony that spans the entire width of the unit. ‘Elm' boasts similar advantages, with an en-suite shower room to the main bedroom as well as separate family bathroom with a shower over the bath, and another good-sized open plan kitchen and living area with dual aspect French doors bathing it in light and providing views to the sea. In the basement of the property is a laundry room, office and cloakroom, exclusively for the owner's use.

There is an additional two bedroom apartment adjacent to the laundry room, which is available under separate negotiation and currently rented under assured shorthold tenancy with residential permission.

What the Owner says:
Shanklin is a charming, traditional seaside holiday destination, steeped in history but with all the advantages of modern conveniences as well. Hope beach is a stunning, golden sandy bay with traditional entertainments, such as crazy golf, ten pin bowling and banana boat rides, as well as several bars and restaurants overlooking the beach. For a quieter beach experience there's Small Hope beach; an unspoilt sandy beach with pretty beach huts and cafés along the revetment. A short walk along the scenic Red Squirrel coastal path will take you to many more of Shanklin's delights, such as Rylstone Gardens – a Victorian park with a bandstand, pitch and putt, café and colourful flower displays, and the beautiful natural landmark Shanklin Chine. There is also the picturesque Shanklin Old Village; lined with pretty thatched cottages housing traditional pubs serving local ales and produce as well as artisan shops, restaurants and tea rooms for a spot of light lunch or cream tea.

Shanklin is well serviced by public transport, making it an ideal base for exploring what the rest of the island has to offer. There are no less than seven bus routes, taking you pretty much everywhere you might want to go including Ventnor, Newport, Ryde, Godshill, Brading and Bembridge. It also has the advantage of being on the Island line, with trains running to Ryde pier head, stopping at Brading, Sandown and Lake in between.
