3 bed detached house for sale

Horestone Rise, Seaview PO34

Welcome to The Lobster Pot

The Lobster Pot is a wonderfully inviting coastal home with a relaxed, beach house character and an enviable position within easy reach of Seagrove Bay. Light, bright and full of charm, the accommodation is arranged over two floors and offers a flexible layout suited to family holidays, permanent living or continued use as a successful holiday let. The ground floor flows from a welcoming porch and central hall into a spacious lounge dining area with a working fireplace, while the kitchen and breakfast room sit to the rear, opening directly onto the garden and deck. A ground floor bedroom, shower/utility room and cloakroom add excellent practicality, particularly after days spent on the beach or water. Upstairs, two further bedrooms and a bathroom enjoy a quieter feel, with the principal bedroom taking in far-reaching sea views across the Solent. Outside, the gardens, terrace, garage and extensive boat-friendly parking complete the lifestyle appeal.

The location offers a superb balance of coastal ease, village convenience and access to the highly regarded Seaview area. From the property, a leafy footpath leads towards Gully Road, continuing down to the golden sands of Seagrove Bay and the quieter, tucked-away beauty of Priory Bay, both ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, beach days and time on the water. Nettlestone village provides useful day-to-day amenities including a local convenience store, well-regarded primary school and Southern Vectis route 8 linking the village with Ryde, Newport and Sandown. Seaview adds a further layer of lifestyle appeal, with its Edwardian promenade, Solent views, sailing club, sandy beaches, coffee shop, community store, gastropub, pharmacist and the celebrated Seaview Hotel Restaurant and Bar. Hersey Nature Reserve, coastal paths and cycling routes are also close by, while Ryde and Fishbourne provide convenient ferry links for mainland connections.

The Approach

The Lobster Pot enjoys an open, practical frontage with generous shingle parking, established greenery and an immediate sense of coastal character. Its chalet-style façade, soft grey cladding, white-painted elevations and nautical touches create a relaxed first impression, while the glimpse of boats to the front perfectly reflects the home’s setting close to the beach, sailing and the wider Seaview coastline.

Ground Floor

The entrance opens into a bright porch, providing a useful first point of arrival before continuing into the main hall, where the staircase rises to the first floor and the ground floor accommodation flows naturally around it. The lounge/dining area forms the principal living space, arranged with wood-effect flooring, soft neutral tones and a charming white-painted fireplace with timber mantel. A large front window draws the outlook across the frontage and towards the Solent beyond, while the room offers ample space for relaxing, dining and gathering after days spent by the coast.

The kitchen sits to the rear of the home and has a warm coastal feel, with pale cabinetry, wood worktops, tiled splashbacks, a Butler-style sink and practical storage. This opens through to the breakfast room, a particularly bright and appealing everyday space with wide windows, a built-in bench seat, room for casual dining and a door directly onto the rear deck and garden. The connection between kitchen, breakfast space and outside works especially well for holiday guests, family meals and summer entertaining.

Also on this level is bedroom three, currently arranged as a twin room and ideal for guests, children or flexible use for ground-floor living. A separate shower/utility room is a valuable feature, combining a shower enclosure, laundry space, wash basin, garden access and plenty of natural light, making it especially practical after beach walks, sailing or watersports. A separate cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

First Floor

The first floor provides two further bedrooms and a bathroom, creating a comfortable and private sleeping area away from the main living spaces. Bedroom one sits to the front and enjoys the standout view, taking in a far-reaching outlook across rooftops, treetops and the Solent beyond. The room has a calm, coastal atmosphere, with soft tones and a bright window framing the view beautifully.

Bedroom two is arranged with bunk beds and works well as a children’s room, guest bedroom or additional holiday let accommodation. The bathroom serves this floor and includes a bath, WC and wash basin, with a light, elegant finish. The landing also gives the upper floor a practical, well-connected layout.

EPC Rating: D

Garden

The outside space is a fabulous feature of The Lobster Pot. To the rear, a generous garden extends away from the house, arranged with lawn, mature trees, fenced boundaries and a five-bar gate leading onto Priory Drive. Directly adjoining the rear of the house is a raised decked terrace, large enough for outdoor dining and relaxed seating, creating a wonderful space for summer meals, morning coffee or returning from the beach. The breakfast room and shower/utility room both connect conveniently with the garden, enhancing the home’s easy coastal lifestyle. The plot feels spacious and usable, with a pleasing balance of entertaining space, lawn and established greenery.

Parking - Garage

A garage sits to the side of the property, providing useful storage or parking, subject to a buyer’s requirements.

Parking - Driveway

The front of the property is arranged with a generous shingle driveway providing extensive off-road parking. The space is well suited to several vehicles and offers plenty of room for boats, trailers or watersports equipment.
