Walking distance to Gurnard Beach, cafés, pubs and coastal walks

Assumed cavity walls with no insulation — thermal improvements needed
Scope to extend and create Solent-facing accommodation (STPP)
Set in the heart of Gurnard, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers a rare coastal opportunity for buyers seeking a project close to the sea. Chain-free and quietly positioned on Church Road, the property includes a garage, driveway and outdoor space with scope to extend (subject to planning). It sits within walking distance of Gurnard Beach, cafés and local pubs, with Cowes and fast Red Jet links only minutes away.
Internally the bungalow requires renovation throughout and currently runs on electric-only heating, presenting a clear opportunity for a modern energy upgrade and reconfiguration to suit contemporary living. The building is traditional in layout with double glazing installed post-2002; work to improve insulation (cavity walls assumed uninsulated) and services should be expected.
For downsizers or those seeking a seaside bolt‑hole, the property offers potential to create Solent-facing accommodation and add value through extension or internal remodelling (STPP). The setting is peaceful, with excellent mobile and broadband connectivity and low local crime, making it practical as a permanent home, second home or holiday-let subject to any local restrictions.
Buyers should note the required renovation, the current electric heating, and the assumed lack of wall insulation when budgeting. The bungalow’s fundamentals—location, plot orientation and detached form—give solid potential for those prepared to invest.
