The characterful sitting room.

A very charming property from the kerb and with plenty of character and history, the row of cottages were known to house the salt-pan workers back when Seaview was mainly fisherman’s huts.

Stepping inside, there are two reception rooms and a kitchen on the ground floor. Further to this, there is a family shower room.

The first floor comprises of two bedrooms and a further third bedroom is on the second floor.

The rear garden is a good size and provides a private space to enjoy.

Priory Bay, Seagrove Bay and Appley Beach all sit in close proximity to the cottage and if the sun isn’t shining, there are boutique shops, cafes and pubs in the village to keep you busy!

Connections to the mainland can be found close by in the neighbouring town of Ryde, which has a distinctly cosmopolitan feel and benefits from a wide range of amenities, including a swimming pool, cinema and lots of independently owned shops.
