This detached two-bedroom bungalow on James Avenue offers straightforward, single-level living ideal for downsizers or buyers seeking a manageable coastal base. Set within mature front and rear gardens, the property includes a rear garage, private decking and greenhouse, and is offered chain free for a quicker sale.
Accommodation is practical: an entrance porch and hall lead to a large lounge/diner, kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. The larger bedroom has fitted wardrobes and the second bedroom opens directly to the rear garden, making indoor-outdoor living easy. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002) are already in place.
The home requires cosmetic updating and modernisation — paint, flooring and kitchen/bathroom refreshes would bring real improvement. Broadband speeds are slow in this area, and the local neighbourhood is classed as deprived, which may affect resale for some buyers. Parking is at the rear in a single garage with electric door; driveway details are limited.
Location is a genuine plus: about a mile from Shanklin town centre with coastal cliff-top walks linking Sandown and Shanklin, local leisure facilities and an 18-hole golf course. Schools nearby have Good Ofsted ratings. Overall, the bungalow suits buyers seeking comfortable, single-storey living with garden space and renovation potential.
