A fine example of an 1800’s expansive seaside Georgian villa, set within the conservation area in the traditional seaside town of Ryde. This spacious four-storey family home is traditionally set out, with the main sitting room and formal dining room at the front of the house. The sitting room has Sky+ and masses of comfortable seating, and the dining room can comfortably sit 12. As you walk through the house, to your left you will find the most wonderful kitchen. The first thing you notice is the pretty garden through the clever positioning of the windows and French doors. The room is perfectly laid out for cooks, with its central island and gas range oven. There is also a good size breakfast table, making this a superb family space. On leaving the kitchen you will pass the reading room, with reclining chairs and French doors into the garden. Next you will find the children’s snug, with seating, Sky+, books, games and toys. Through the snug you will find the utility room and then the ground floor shower room. The first floor has a good size double bedroom and twin bedroom, along with a family bathroom with a shower over bath. Upstairs on the second floor there two large double rooms, one with sea glimpses, while the master bedroom has superb views across the Solent all the way to the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth and beyond. On the third and final floor there are two twin rooms and the most fantastic bathroom with a whirlpool bath and rainfall shower with steam vent, a real treat at the end of a long day. The lovely walled garden at the rear has a raised lawn, mature flower beds and a patio area, all protected by the magnificent island-stone walls. Nowhere in the town is too far from Burford House, which is perfect, as Ryde offers something for everyone. Enjoy wide sandy golden beaches, with miles of shoreline all the way to Seaview, the marina, boating lake, indoor swimming pool with an opening roof for those sunny days, bowling alley, cinema, arcades, many restaurants, pubs, cafés, boutiques, and antique shops. If a little pampering is required, pop into the Liz Earl’s shop; Ryde was where this iconic brand was born. Ryde also has fantastic transport connections so no need for a car; the passenger ferry connects you to the train which will take you down the pier and all the way to Shanklin if desired. Next door to the train station is the bus station, with buses waiting to take you all the way around the island. A truly wonderful Georgian villa, perfectly located for year round enjoyment.

Ryde is '˜The Gateway to the Island', being the largest town on the Isle of White and a popular holiday destination since the mid 19th century. Its excellent transport links - regular ferry, hovercraft and catamaran services from the mainland - mean thousands each year cross The Solent to enjoy Ryde's selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, or to relax on the six miles of glorious sandy beach. There are plenty of recreational activities on the seaside esplanade, including tenpin bowling, an ice-rink, children's rides and paddling pool, a boating lake and a putting green. With everything in easy reach and the whole Island at your fingertips, Ryde makes a superb holiday destination.
