5 bedroom end of terrace house

Boasting a total of four reception rooms and five bedrooms, this impressive property offers an attached annexe providing the versatility to create one generous home and comes complete with a driveway plus a delightful rear garden with ample storage sheds.

Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance to Newport High Street, this beautifully presented 1960s end-of-terrace property has been extended by the current owners of 28 years to create plenty of flexible accommodation, perfect for a growing family or a multi-generational household requiring independent spaces. Providing the option to be utilised as an annexe or to be incorporated as part of the main home, the two-storey side extension alone offers a spacious living room, two bedrooms and an en-suite shower room. Furthermore, the former garage on the adjacent side has been converted to provide an additional versatile room which could be utilised for multiple purposes such as an extra bedroom, a study or a reception room. Externally, a driveway to the front provides off-road parking for up to three vehicles and a delightful rear garden has been well established to provide an enclosed, secluded outdoor space featuring a sheltered decked terrace next to a fish pond and a generous storage shed spanning the width of a well-maintained lawn area.

Just outside of the bustling High Street, a relaxing flat level walk all the way to Island Harbour can be enjoyed along the peaceful Medina Estuary which is a haven for plenty of local wildlife and plants, including wading birds such as oystercatchers and redshanks. Some of the island's top attractions are also located in Newport, including the multi-award-winning Monkey Haven, English Heritage's Carisbrooke Castle, and the popular Robin Hill Country Park. With the Isle of Wight College located on the outskirts of Newport, there is a good choice of schools close by at primary and secondary level including the Summerfield Primary School which is consistently rated Good by Ofsted. Frequent bus routes serve nearby Fairlee Road and Staplers Road, plus all island bus services connect in Newport town centre linking to other major towns of the Island and intermediate villages. Being centrally located means you're never far from all the wonderful things that our beautiful island has to offer, including the beautiful West Wight with its unspoilt beaches and rugged coastline.
