65 St Marys Road

This handsome period cottage, believed to originate from 1842, has in recent years been subject to extensive and sympathetic refurbishment which included complete rewiring, new heating and plumbing systems, renovation of the main roof and replacement of the flat roof and new double glazed UPVC framed windows throughout. In addition, a good quality new kitchen and shower rooms were put in place whilst additional insulation was installed along with a wood burning stove. The house was re-plastered and redecorated throughout. The use of good quality fittings results in a superbly presented and comfortable home that has been a successful holiday let.

The attractive south facing rear garden was redesigned to provide a low maintenance space which has private side access. The contents of the property can be included by separate negotiation. Cowes is world-renowned for its sailing and yachting facilities and benefits from a good range of independent shops, restaurants and bars. The Red Jet ferry terminal provides regular high speed (25 mins) passenger ferry services to Southampton, (with onward rail links enabling London Waterloo to be reached in less than 2 hours).
