Set within the west wing of a late-Regency marine villa, this Grade II listed town house offers substantial family accommodation across four floors. The house retains strong period character — high ceilings, sash windows, ornate cornices, original fireplaces and generous reception rooms — combined with contemporary kitchen and bathroom fittings. Wide windows from the rear reception rooms provide open sea/harbour sightlines toward Stokes Bay. The property sits on a large plot with formal front lawn, substantial private rear garden, paved patio, garage and off-street parking for several vehicles.
The accommodation totals approximately 2,972 sq ft and includes four double bedrooms (with potential for a fifth), two bathrooms and about eleven rooms in all. The layout and room proportions are above average for a town property, making the house well suited to a growing family who value original detail alongside modern convenience. Local schools rated ‘Good’ are nearby and Alverstoke village amenities and the seafront are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material factors: listed status means any alteration will be subject to consent and could complicate refurbishment or extension plans. The house occupies multiple floors, which may be less suitable for limited mobility and may lead to higher running and maintenance costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall, this is a rare, large period home close to the sea that will appeal to families or buyers seeking a character-rich property with substantial garden and parking, prepared to manage listed-building responsibilities.
