5 North Wells

The former schoolhouse situated toward the beach on Ducie Avenue is an attractive period property, providing a private and tranquil setting converted to a range of desirable apartments. 5 North Wells occupies a ground floor position with green outlook over communal gardens, and a glimpse of the Solent. The property has been comprehensively refurbished to include new electric radiators, luxurious bathrooms and a high specification kitchen, as well as internal woodwork, décor, doors, and lighting. Now offering a light and tastefully finished spacious property with open plan reception space, and two good bedrooms. The comfortable living areas and quality of finish makes for an excellent permanent, or holiday home in a unique position, within close proximity to the beach and village.

Tucked away on a tree-lined avenue, North Wells Lodge is a short walk from the village centre and Bembridge Harbour, which has extensive mooring facilities and two sailing clubs, while the village has a good range of shops, cafes, and restaurants, in addition to an excellent fishmongers, butchers and farm shop. The coastal path crosses Ducie Avenue adjacent to the property, meaning there is direct access to walking routes to the harbour, a plethora of stunning beaches and further to Culver Down and Brading RSPB marshes, all excellent for picturesque countryside walks.
