Beach House Silverleaves

About the home

“Beach House Silverleaves” is a delightful single-storey family and pet-friendly home in Silverleaves, just a comfortable walk from the Beach and Silverleaves General Store and a short drive from the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features of this lovely home are detailed below:

Indoor Areas

Entry to the home is via the Verandah into a central Entry Hall, which leads to the rear Living room (with 66" Smart TV, books, and a selection of card and board games) and flows through to the airy open-plan Kitchen/Dining area (with seating for 8 people). This space opens onto a large north-facing Deck overlooking the fully fenced rear garden. A central hallway off the Entry provides access to Bedroom 1 which features a WIR and Ensuite (with shower & toilet), Bedrooms 2 and 3 (each with BIR), the main Bathroom (with bath & shower), and a separate Toilet. The fully equipped Laundry (with washing machine, clothes dryer & indoor drying rack) flows through from the Kitchen and also has external access.

Outdoor Areas

The spacious north-facing Deck is well lit and features a modern gas BBQ (with outdoor seating for up to 10 people and a retractable sun shade) and leads directly onto a fully fenced backyard with a lawned area, making it perfect for children and pets. There is an outdoor hot & cold water shower, along with drying lines for laundry, wetsuits, and beach gear.

A pedestrian gate provides easy access to the beach (just a one-minute walk), and on return, the outdoor shower and hose are ideal for a quick rinse-off. The undercover verandah (with 4 outside chairs with cushions) is the perfect spot to relax, take in stunning sunset views, and savor the laid-back coastal vibe. There is space to park up to two cars in the driveway, with plenty of additional parking available on the verges.

The fully appointed kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, a microwave, Nespresso coffee pod machine, toaster, kettle, and more, plus a double sink, fridge, dishwasher, electric oven, and induction cooktop (please use the specific induction cookware kept in the cupboard for cooking).

There are two wall-mounted reverse cycle air conditioners in the lounge area and Bedroom 1, ceiling fans in all bedrooms, plus a large ceiling fan in the lounge, wall-mounted heaters in all bedrooms, and fly screens on all windows and the main and deck doors. The home also has a Coonara-style wood heater in the lounge area (no wood provided; however, guests can purchase some at the local service station if required).
