The Strand, Ryde
£225,000

This second floor converted apartment is situated with its lovely lawn communal gardens backing on to the Esplanade at Ryde. A gated access opens onto the Esplanade leaving you just 50 yards from Ryde's sandy beaches which stretch for miles in either direction. Being second floor this flat is rewarded by quite spectacular panoramic views which include the beach, sea, the tree-lined Esplanade and the nearby canoe lake which attracts and is frequented by various birds including the much loved swan. Internally the triple aspect layout provides some flexibility for use as either a 2 or 3 bedroom property depending whether a second reception room is preferred. The seaward facing lounge and main bedroom offer front row seats to the stunning waterside vista leaving the wonderfully light kitchen/diner to the to sunny south side of the property. The bathroom has been recently replaced with a smart modern white suite with shower over the bath. For commuters or those looking for a holiday home the proximity to the passenger ferry and hovercraft mainland connections could prove to be very convenient. Bus and train stations are equally close by and the main town centre shops and facilities are roughly a 15 minute walk away from this well placed property.
