A Charming Period Cottage Moments from Bembridge Harbour and Coastal Walks and Sailing Clubs
The Old Railway Cottage is a characterful three-bedroom semi-detached home, formerly the signal master’s house at the end of Station Road—where the Island’s railway once met Bembridge village. Full of period charm, this beautifully styled home combines original features with thoughtfully updated interiors, including a modern kitchen, stylish bathrooms, and tasteful décor throughout.
The property enjoys a versatile open-plan layout on the ground floor, creating a light and sociable living space ideal for entertaining. Set in a peaceful and sought-after location, the cottage boasts mature terraced gardens to both the front and rear, and benefits from direct access to parking on a quiet lane.
Just a short walk from Bembridge Harbour, sailing clubs, and scenic coastal paths, the cottage also borders protected countryside, including rspb and aonb land—with glorious walks stretching toward Brading Marshes and Culver Down. The village itself offers a wide range of independent shops, including a butcher, baker, fishmonger, delicatessen, restaurants and a ‘scandi’ coffee shop. Ryde, with its FastCat service to Portsmouth, is just seven miles away, providing convenient mainland access.
