THERE is much to like in this elegant Cowes penthouse, set over three floors, but the main attraction is the view.

Not only does apartment 6, 22 Birmingham Road, boast one of the best outlooks in Cowes, the interior is easy on the eye too.

Near the main hub of this bustling sailing town, the property overlooks The Solent and across Osborne Bay.

From the master bedroom on the third floor and the living room on the fourth floor, there are sea-facing balconies — a choice of locations to watch the action.

Balancing the two seaward balconies are two terraces, on the third and fourth floors, at the back, offering a southerly aspect.

There is a garage on the ground floor, secured by a remotely operated grill door from the street, plus two parking spaces. The garage can also be accessed from the foyer, via a pedestrian security door.

The apartment is in a modern complex on the site of a former cinema, The Royalty. The foyer entrance is immaculate, with a turned staircase and a central lift.

Beckoning you into this great home is a bright entrance hall. From the hallway on the third floor, doors lead to the master bedroom, three further double bedrooms and a bathroom complete with a bath, separate shower cubicle, basin and WC.

The large master bedroom has a private, sea-facing terrace and an en-suite with a double shower cubicle. The second bedroom also has an en-suite shower room and double doors to a terrace.

Heading to the fourth floor, a feature glass screen on the landing allows natural light through from the sitting room. Doors lead to a cloakroom, kitchen, sitting room and dining room currently used as a games room, with a large terrace.

The kitchen has a five-ring gas hob, eye-level double oven, and integrated appliances — fridge freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.

The generous sitting room is the star attraction and features a wrap-around terrace/balcony.

Completing this home is the addition of a large room on the top floor — ideal as a home office or study.
