About this property
7 Hope Road, a fabulous, three-bedroom home rests in the bustling town of Shanklin, upon the Isle of Wight. Enjoying sea glimpses and a stone's throw away from the beach and a range of amenities, 7 Hope Road offers a well-equipped, spacious base for a family of six, looking to explore the delights of the Isle. Benefit from two off-road parking spaces to the rear, sought-after in the area, before travelling through the enclosed patio, a delight for alfresco dining whilst your furry companion roams safely. Reach the first floor where you'll find the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can rustle up delicious meals to be enjoyed in the formal dining room, before relaxing in the elegantly-furnished sitting room; a bathroom completes this floor. Ideal for teenagers, grandparents, or those looking for a bit of privacy, the ground floor houses a homely living/dining room, a double bedroom, a bathroom, and the utility, providing a lovely nook away from the rest of the home. The remaining two bedrooms, a king-size enjoying elevated sea views, and a twin, rest on the second floor, and are serviced by a shower room. Just a stroll away, reach Shanklin's beachfront, brimming with shops, eateries, pubs, and lovely gardens, where you can spend the day as a family, sampling local menus, making memories and taking in the stunning coastal scenes; Shanklin Chine is also nearby for those who prefer nature-filled landscapes. Travelling west reach Sandown, home to a further sandy shoreline, Sandham Gardens, and the Wildheart Animal Sanctuary, whilst the Amazon World Zoo is also nearby, a perfect attraction for animal lovers. With so many hidden gems dotted across the Isle of Wight AONB, enjoy all of this, and more from 7 Hope Road.
The town of Shanklin on the Isle of Wight is a traditional seaside resort, sitting in a sheltered, sunny bay on the south-east coast of the island. Shanklin and Sandown offer all the right ingredients for a great summer holiday, with long, safe, sandy beaches and loads of family attractions, such as a zoo, pier and fairground, plus shops, restaurants, pubs and clubs. The older part of Shanklin, known as Shanklin Old Village, is set slightly lower than the town, where the road winds between traditional thatched cottages, tea shops and charming gardens and parks. Explore Shanklin Chine, a dramatic gorge with a waterfall tumbling through lush plants and mossy boulders. At the top of the cliff is the bustling High Street of shops and the grand Victorian theatre, at the bottom there are cafes, shops and amusements along the suntrap esplanade and sandy beach. Shanklin is great starting point for numerous coastal and inland walks (with the option to return using the local bus network). The rest of the island, including Sandown, Godshill, Blackgang Chine and The Needles, is all easily accessible.
