Detached house for sale in Mayfield Road, East Cowes PO32

Summary

There is unique and there's unique! This Victorian detached home started life as a boys reform school back in the early 1900's and many people have since called her 'home'.

Situated over 3 floors the accommodation at present offers 4 double bedrooms on the first floor and a further 3 on the ground floor, however, these would typically be reception rooms. There is a large bathroom with separate w/c servicing this floor.

On the lower ground floor there is a snug which leads off of the good size kitchen and connecting utility room and shower room.

Outside and the garden has been split into two sections and the lower half still houses a WW1 shelter!

This home has not been on the open market since ownership some 20 plus years ago, and here is what she says:
'The minute I walked into this home, it just wrapped its arms around me. I used to foster children here as did the people before, and before that it was a boys reform school. After 18 years here and the children have all grown up, I felt it was time someone else enjoyed what it brings. It's a home for laughter, tears, occasional tantrums, achievements and security. It is time to come alive again and give someone some wonderful memories like it has me.'

A viewing would be highly recommended to truly appreciate what this home has to offer her next custodians.
