Seller Insight
This has been a wonderful home and I have thoroughly enjoyed my 18 years living here. However, I feel it is time to down size and hope new owners will not only enjoy everything this property has to offer but maybe have the opportunity to develop it further. For example, there is the potential to create an additional garage/workshop or office/studio at the end of the garden with access to Church Lane.
Brading is a small town, one of the oldest on the Island, and stands on the side of the Downs and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The area provides many places to walk and ride with spectacular views. There are many delightful buildings including the Norman Church, The Old Town Hall with the original stocks, and also the Town Pound and historic Bull Ring. One of the local pubs, Yarbridge Inn is noted for its range of Real Ales, and there is also a small Supermarket / Convenience store, eating places, small shops, a Post Office, a Toy museum and a good Primary School. There are several active groups with interests including Art and Local History.
There is a frequent train service to Sandown / Shanklin, and to Ryde where it connects with the fast passenger ferry to Portsmouth from the pier head.
Ryde is the largest town on the Island and provides a range of activities throughout the year, and a full range of shops including a Tesco Extra super store. Sandown and Shanklin have many shops including supermarkets, as well as renowned beaches. Nearby Bembridge also has a range of shops and eating places, and is an important venue for sailing.*
