Summary - ISLAND COTTAGE LANE END ROAD BEMBRIDGE PO35 5SY
3 bed 2 bath House
Charming 3-bed cottage with private south-facing gardens, minutes from the beach.
Detached 1930s cottage with many original period features
Island Cottage is a detached 1930s period home set minutes from Lane End Beach and the Bembridge lifeboat station. The house combines original features — exposed beams, leaded windows, ornate brickwork and original floorboards — with practical modern comforts such as a recently replaced terracotta roof, mains gas central heating and a HIVE thermostat. The layout provides two reception rooms, a handmade kitchen with Rayburn and pantry, plus a utility and downstairs WC.
The property sits on large, very private south-facing gardens with a gravel driveway and detached garage. Bi-fold doors open from the dining/family room onto the garden, creating easy indoor–outdoor flow for family life or summer entertaining. The garage has development potential for a home office or ancillary space, subject to planning consent.
Practical points to note: the property retains many original elements and will suit buyers who appreciate character and are comfortable carrying light modernisation. The log-burning stove is currently non-functioning, some cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, and there may be scope to improve energy efficiency. Council Tax is banded high (F), and any garage conversion would require the necessary consents.
This is a versatile home ideal for families seeking proximity to beaches, good local schools and coastal walking, or buyers seeking a holiday/letting opportunity in a desirable Bembridge location. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the private garden outlook and the house’s characterful interiors.
