Discreetly tucked away near the end of Millers Lane, this comfortable detached Grade II Listed family home has its origins in the 1700s. However, the main part of the property is about 150 years old and includes characterful period features such as a chimney stack, an original veranda, an internal stained glass door, a Victorian staircase, oak flooring, a fireplace, dado and picture rails. It is surrounded by countryside but less than two miles from the centre of Newport and nestles in a wraparound garden.

There is a spacious light and bright pitched roof entrance lobby with a wall of windows. This leads into the hall with the period staircase, doors to the lounge and study and open access to the well-proportioned kitchen/dining room with its colourful wall tiles which includes an impressive oak dresser, a range of units and stand-alone appliances, plenty of space for a table and chairs. There is an adjacent utility room, cloakroom and bathroom.

A spacious study could also be used as a formal dining room for entertaining while the light and bright dual aspect lounge is just the place to relax in front of the fire on a cold winter's evening. This leads through the stained-glass door to the gorgeous conservatory that spans the width of the property and provides excellent views across the garden and beyond.

Off the first-floor galleried landing is the family shower room and four bedrooms offering superb views across the countryside. These include a single and three doubles with one being dual aspect and has a built-in shelving while another also has a built in wardrobe.

Outside there is a driveway that provides off road parking as well as the charming veranda surrounded by lawns, mature trees and shrubs, raised vegetable beds and a newly built fence.

What the Owner says:
This has been a wonderful home for the past 20 years and a great place to bring up our family. It is within walking distance of local schools and the bus stop is only a few minutes away. We love being in the countryside yet we are close to Carisbrooke and its famous castle and on the edge of Newport, however we are now moving back to the mainland to be nearer our children and hope another family will enjoy living here as much as we have. In many ways it is a ‘blank canvas' just waiting for new owners to make it their own.

The village of Carisbrooke includes two pubs, a café, an Italian restaurant and a few shops in the high street. There are also four schools including St Thomas primary school and Christ the King secondary school as well as a doctor's surgery.

Newport is the county town of the Isle of Wight and includes a variety of high street stores and independent shops as well as wide selection of restaurants and bars. There is a weekly street market and a farmers' market and a number of primary and secondary schools within the vicinity. It is not far from the Shide Nature Reserve and the walks or cycle rides along the River Medina are a real pleasure, while the Newport Golf Club is available for golfing enthusiasts.
