DESCRIPTION:
Luccombe Chine is an impressive small country estate in an elevated position overlooking the English Channel, in grounds of about 6.5 acres. Close by is the hamlet of Luccombe between Shanklin and Bonchurch on the South Coast of the Isle of Wight. The present main house dates largely from 1928, though it has origins in the 17th Century. It reputedly once formed part of the Fleming Estate. The Fleming Estate extended over much of the Isle of Wight, on the former lands of Quarr Abbey which were purchased in 1609 by the famous Judge and M.P., Sir Thomas Fleming (1533 1613). The property is undoubtedly found in one of the finest positions on the Island with commanding views of The Channel, Downs and through the wooded gorge, which leads to the beach, known as Luccombe Chine. The property affords privacy, outstanding sea views and stands in mature, landscaped grounds. Built on the site of a much earlier property on rock of brick and stone with part colour-washed rendered elevations and Tudor style gables, and enjoys views of the sea, to the Chine and beach particularly from the fine veranda and balcony of the ground and 1st floors. Chine is a local name for a small gorge taking a stream down to the beach. There is sufficient ground for helicopters to land.
LUCCOMBE CHINE HOUSE:
A fine detached property constructed of brick, stone and colour-washed rendered elevations beneath tiled roofs.
It benefits from a recent programme of extensive renovation and the addition of a fine glass-walled Drawing Room (extending to about 1,000 sq. feet) and a desirable verandah which, together with the principal rooms, enjoys spectacular sea views.
ACCOMMODATION:
The accommodation is set out principally on two floor levels together with a lower ground floor and an attic
storey. The accommodation extends (on the ground, lower ground and first floors) to approximately 5,057 square feet/464 square metres and is described on the Floor Plans and more particularly below:
GROUND FLOOR:
Reception Hall - with cloakroom off. Beamed ceiling, impressive fireplace and oak flooring.
Drawing Room - with period stone fireplace (reputed to have come from Appuldercombe House), oak flooring,
glazed walls and glazed terrace doors opening onto a decked verandah and affording superb sea views of the
Chine through to the English Channel.
Dining Room - with period oak and bathstone fireplace, oak flooring, fine cornicing pillars and plasterwork. Family Room - with beamed ceiling and 'inglenook' fireplace.
Study - with separate outside access.
Kitchen/Breakfast Room - fully fitted with wooden and natural stone work tops to a high specification with space for range cooker.
LOWER GROUND FLOOR:
Hall with outside door and gardener's W.C.
Workshop
Kitchen/Utility/Laundry Room with fitted units, space and plumbing for appliances and adjoining storage area.

ATTIC STOREY:
Stairs rise from the landing to the part-boarded, extensive attics which offer potential for extending the existing accommodation, subject to obtaining the necessary statutory consents.
OUTSIDE:
The approach to the property, from a privately-owned lane, is through a pillared entrance, leading to a private metalled illuminated drive with period lamposts, ending in a parking sweep around a central pond with a fountain situated to the front of Luccombe Chine House. The grounds extend around the house and include many mature specimen trees and shrubs. There is a separate area of hardstanding and a purpose built timber double garage/machinery store with light and power connected and with studio/office/workshop above. A further garden/garage store adjoins the Stable Cottages. A stream flows through the upper garden, through a tunnel beneath the house, emerging via a waterfall which cascades into the Chine and down to the beach, which
can be reached by a path adjoining the property. Paths descended, via a pleasant 'al fresco' dining area/view point, through the Chine and once extended down to the shore. Beach access is now achieved over a path and steps adjoining the property. The castellated folly is constructed of stone elevations beneath a leaded roof which provides ideal viewing (of the beach and the English Channel) and flagpole platform.
