Summary - OXFORD COTTAGE, 98 ALBERT STREET VENTNOR PO38 1EU
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious Georgian cottage in central Ventnor, short walk to the esplanade.
Chain-free four-bedroom detached cottage over three floors
Oxford Cottage is a roomy four-bedroom detached period house arranged over three floors, newly decorated with brand-new carpets and ready to occupy chain-free. The house keeps much of its Georgian character — whitewashed stone walls and period detailing — while presenting a neutral, modernised interior and a well-proportioned living room with a working fireplace.
Practical conveniences include off-street parking, a private courtyard garden and mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators. The property sits in the heart of Ventnor, a short walk from shops, cafes and the esplanade, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for families who need connectivity and access to local amenities. Nearby schools include several rated Good at primary and secondary levels.
Buyers should note some material negatives: the area is classified as very deprived and records higher local crime levels, which may affect insurance and perceived safety. The plot is small and the outdoor space is a courtyard rather than a larger garden. There is one full family bathroom and an additional toilet on the top floor, which could be tight for four bedrooms. The house is an older build (pre-1900) and cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should consider potential future insulation or energy-efficiency work.
Overall, this property will suit buyers seeking a character-filled family home in the centre of Ventnor who value location and convenience and are prepared to accept a modest plot and the local area challenges. Its chain-free status and recent redecoration reduce immediate move-in work, while the layout offers scope to adapt or upgrade services over time.
