Property Description

The upper floor of Appley Beach House has two huge ensuite master bedrooms enjoying commanding sea views over the gardens, seafront, beach and busy Solent. Yachting events around the island are enjoyed particularly from these vantage points, as well as from front rooms on each level.

Six further ensuite rooms, two on the upper floor, four on the garden floor, currently used as bedrooms, would make great studies, dressing rooms or office/hobby spaces.

The main ground floor of Appley Beach House, entered though an impressive entrance hall, has two large front rooms, mirroring the master bedrooms above. The dining room, and large family kitchen/breakfast room to the rear aspect, enjoy early morning sun rises, sun throughout the day, and finally sunsets over the sun terraces and swimming pool, accessed easily through the back door beside the kitchen, passing a separate shower room, and WC, handy for visitors before and after use of the swimming pool.

Unlike many three storey properties, due to clever design, the lower floor of Appley Beach House is at ground level also, opening onto sun terraces and gardens at the front and rear of the house. French doors from two ensuite rooms on this level open onto small private terraces with steps to the swimming pool terrace at the rear, while French doors from the front two rooms, again mirroring those above in size and space, lead onto the front terrace, gardens and beach. Currently used as games room and large ensuite bedroom, with exterior entrances, as well as interior to the main house, rooms on the garden level offer many permutations for mixed generation family living, teenagers and visiting friends.

Double wrought iron gates lead onto Appley Beach House's private circular driveway from Ryde Esplanade, providing secure parking for multiple cars, boats/watersports. A large detached garage/workshop sits to the right hand side of the property, accessed by an artery from the circular driveway.
