THE Chute has commanding views over The Solent and it’s just a short walk from the beach.

This elegant and fascinating period property in Seaview occupies the upper floors of an iconic early Edwardian seaside property built at the turn of the 20th Century.

The property has the benefit of a comprehensive refurbishment undertaken in 2014. It has retained much of its period character, but has been enhanced with three generous en-suite bedrooms, plus a new kitchen and new electrics and plumbing.

The Chute is ideally suited to families who wish to have a home overlooking the sea, or could be utilised as a holiday house/holiday let.

It is superbly located for easy access to the beach at Seagrove Bay with its boat launching slipway, while the village amenities in Seaview are also a short coastal path walk away, as is Priory Bay. The town of Ryde is approximately three miles away.

Entry is via an attractive blue timber door with stained glass and ornate leadwork inset and fanlight over.

The light-filled hallway has a patterned tiled floor and stairs rise to a galleried landing with dual-aspect windows overlooking neighbouring fields and out to sea.

The stunning kitchen/dining room is an amazing entertaining space and the kitchen has a full range of shaker style kitchen units with marble stone tops and under-mounted butler sink with mixer tap over, plus a four-ring Neff gas hob with Bosch cooker and extractor over, an integrated Neff dishwasher and Neff microwave, plus space for a fridge/freezer.

The dining room off the kitchen has French doors to the balcony overlooking Seagrove Bay.

The sitting room is a particularly impressive room with high ceilings with decorative beams and clad walls and a central gas fire with timber mantel.

There is a deep bay window with window seat and a further two sash windows looking out to sea complete this triple-aspect room full of character.

Also on this floor are two bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms, plus a separate WC.

Upstairs, the master bedroom occupies the entirety of this floor and features exposed beams and under-eaves storage, plus a dormer window with far-reaching views over The Solent and a separate dressing room with en-suite bathroom with a slipper bath placed to enjoy sea views.

Outside, there is an enclosed garden terrace to the side with an elevated balcony at first floor level which extends the width of the property. There is also a dedicated parking space available.

All viewings are strictly by prior arrangement with Spence Willard or joint agents Seafields.
