Brook Cottage is a substantial Grade II listed detached house set in Alverstoke’s village conservation area, a few minutes’ walk from Stokes Bay. The property offers generous, flexible living across about 2,088 sq ft with four bedrooms, four reception rooms and a large 91ft landscaped garden — well suited to families wanting space and character close to the waterfront.
The house retains many period features including sash windows, decorative cornice, original shutters and fireplaces, giving strong character and charm. Practical strengths include double glazing, mains gas central heating, fast broadband and a convenient pedestrian side access with off-street parking (restricted space).
Important considerations: listed status will restrict alterations and may add cost and time to renovations; the property has a high long-term flood risk and the external walls are solid brick with no built-in insulation (assumed). There is only one family bathroom for four bedrooms and council tax is Band F, which should be factored into running costs.
For buyers open to sensitive renovation, the house presents clear upside — especially by improving thermal performance and reconfiguring space (subject to listed-building consents). Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and garden, and to assess renovation scope and flood-mitigation options.
