THERE is plenty of room for all the family at this stylish modern house in Upton Road, Ryde. It is beautifully presented, superbly spacious and yet you wouldn’t even know it was there, because it is set in a tucked away location.
Scroll through our gallery of pictures above to see more. Despite its quiet setting, it is close to Ryde town centre and Union Street and within walking distance of some cracking countryside walks and the scenic coastal strolls of Appley Beach and beyond. Its position is far enough out of town to offer some far-reaching countryside views, without being so far that you need use the car every time you want to go out.
Efforts have been stepped up by some Isle of Wight councillors - led by Ryde’s Mayor Michael Lilley - to put a stop to large scale greenfield housing developments in the East Wight.
Much of the Isle of Wight s coastline has seen sewage pumped into the seas in recent days. AS WE come out of lockdown and more and more people take to swimming in the sea, there remains worrying signs sewage continues to get pumped into the Island s waters. The latest data on Southern Water s interactive, online map, Beachbuoy which, since 2018, has been providing up-to-date information about releases of stormwater or wastewater from combined sewer overflows (CSOs) has generated some worrying outflow alerts this week. Yesterday s (Saturday) map shows releases from a CSO at various designated bathing waters on the Island over the past 24 hours (as a red square), as well as safer areas where has been no CSO release over the past 72 hours (a blue circular icon).
