History Of Golden Hill fort
Constructed in 1863, about sixty metres above the North West coast of the Isle of Wight, this distinctive hexagonal building had the height, strength and strategic position to help counter what was at the time perceived as a serious threat of attack from across the channel. Together with over 20 other structures in and around the region, the Palmerston defences were used as accommodation for troops manning the forts and batteries protecting the Needles passage. Solidly built with an attractive symmetry that reflected the discipline of the military and with wide ranging vistas across the Solent and Afton Down, Golden Hill Fort was designed to provide the surrounding area with a secure local base in times of war. Now, about 150 years later, this remarkable Grade I listed landmark has been transformed into a series of just 18 spectacular and individual luxury houses. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a home with a genuine sense of history, quality, and space. 

Accommodation
The ground floor comprises of a truly impressive sitting room/diner/kitchen with a wonderful red brick having been exposed in parts of the house. A useful and good-sized study is located off the grand central hallway. There is an external door leading to the north-west from the kitchen into a garden area. All three of the bedrooms (all double), enjoy en-suite facilities and the principle bedroom has a large walk-in dressing room. There are premium grade appliances and fittings that have been installed.Underfloor heating on the first floor and hot water are supplied via a gas fired boiler.
