What the Owner says:
This delightful house has been in the family for at least fifty years and I have lived here for the past 30 years. It has been a wonderful home full of character and history where even the garage used to be the local butcher. I have also been able to generate income through letting the annex. The area is so quiet and peaceful with delightful places to go for walks. At the same time the main road and bus stops are only the other side of the green so it is easy to access the nearby villages, towns and beaches.

It is less than two miles to Chale the most southerly village on the island, with its impressive cliffs in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the White Mouse Inn, while Niton village is less than three miles where you will find Joe's Bar that includes a café and the post office. There is also a pharmacy, convenience store and medical centre as well as a nursery and primary school with the excellent White Lion pub a short walk up the hill, while along St Catherine's Road there is the charming Buddle Inn. It is not far to the quintessential English village of Godshill, with its medieval church and charming thatched-roofed cottages. This is full of independent shops, pubs, restaurants and tearooms as well as the well-known Godshill Model Village and is also famous for being the site of the first ever Isle of Wight Festival in 1968.
