This mid-terrace 1930s house offers period character in a convenient Cowes location, well suited to first-time buyers seeking a manageable, affordable home. The layout is compact across two floors with an average-sized footprint and a small rear garden that’s private and easy to maintain.
Accommodation is straightforward: two bedrooms, one bathroom and around 847 sq ft of living space arranged as multiple reception rooms and a kitchen with garden access. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators, so basic services are in place. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and mobile signal is excellent.
The house does require updating and some cosmetic work — rooms are generally small and dated in places — which creates an opportunity to modernise and add value. Cavity walls are noted as having no insulation (assumed), and some elements such as older glazing may be worth upgrading for comfort and efficiency.
Location strengths include low local crime, an affluent surrounding area with white-professional demographic indicators, and nearby schools and amenities in Cowes. Flood risk is low and tenure is freehold, simplifying ownership for a first purchase or starter home.
