more about this place...

Inside

Space has been used well here in the recent total renovation. The open plan downstairs area is the full width and length of the house. It feels generous in size for a small place. The  conservatory is the full house width and lets in plenty of light. The colours downstairs are bold and dark, but with all the light, it feels fun and dramatic, rather than dark. The sitting room has masses of seating and a huge TV for cinema-style relaxing or catching up on the sport. .

The kitchen is smart, white, with electric oven and fridge/freezer. The kitchen table sits to one side in the large sitting room. There is a large Smart TV mounted above the old fireplace so watching a movie or sport here is easy. Large Sofa and arm chair. The conservatory has wicker sofa seating and you can open the modern sliding doors up to allow the sun in. It’s a real sun trap here and the light from the conservatory warms the house beautifully through the year.

Part of the garage has been reclaimed for a utility room, which is fab for storing prams, beach stuff and luggage.

The staircase has a wooden handrail for those who might need it.

Three upstairs bedrooms are small in size, as you’d expect in a terraced house, but they are light, bright and well dressed with 100% cotton linens.

Bathrooms are sparkly and practical and the main bedroom has a very small ensuite shower too.

Best for…

Space for 6 adults plus baby and those wanting to explore the coast.
Birdwatchers (Keyhaven Marshes is known for an astonishing variety of bird species) and it will appeal to keen walkers – the Solent Way is a 1 min walk and goes for miles here.
For those who love being active, running or cycling the seawall is great.
Water sports enthusiasts will have a great time. Not only are there opportunities to sail, but Hurst Spit (a mile-long shingle bank) shelters an expanse of quiet water superb for wild swimming, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding and kite-surfing (there’s sufficient breeze over the top of the spit for lift).

Accessibility

The access to the cottage is flat and there is a small step into the cottage from the drive.
