What the Owner says:

We bought Rawalpindi around 30 years ago from the original family who built it in the early 1950s. The house was named in honour of H.M.S. Rawalpindi, a ship on which the former owner proudly served during the Second World War.

Set at the beach end of Swains Road, the property sits at a charming crossroads of footpaths: one leading to Swains Beach, another towards the harbours, and an unmade lane that takes you to the lifeboat station.

There is generous parking for up to seven cars, along with a large garage that offers excellent potential for conversion into additional living space or an annexe.

We have cherished our years at Rawalpindi in the beautiful harbour village of Bembridge—one of the largest in England. Now, the time has come for this lovely home to begin its third chapter with new owners who will enjoy it as much as we have.
