A top-floor, four-bedroom apartment in Raleigh House offering far-reaching Solent and harbour views from a Juliet balcony. The main living room is a double-aspect, open-plan space that will suit family life and entertaining; the principal bedroom includes an ensuite and additional windows for light. Constructed in the mid-2000s, the flat benefits from double glazing, lift access and parking for two vehicles — convenient for families and weekend visitors.
Practical running costs to note: heating is all-electric (storage heaters/convectors) which can be more expensive than gas, and the property carries a service charge of about £1,750 per year plus Council Tax Band F. The tenure is leasehold with a share of freehold and the property is offered chain free, which helps a quicker move.
Location is a strong selling point: central Cowes with ferry links, shops, cafes and good primary and secondary schools within easy reach, plus communal lawned garden and fast broadband. Buyers should be aware the wider area records relatively high crime levels; viewings will clarify how the building’s security and management address that.
This apartment suits a family seeking a central, sea-view home or an investor seeking lock-up-and-go lettings in a popular coastal town. The property is in good decorative order but has some predictable maintenance and running-cost implications because of electric heating and annual service charges.
