Located on the rural fringes of Newport, this fabulous home offers a convenient lifestyle with Newport town centre just a few minutes drive away offering an array of shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants and enjoys beautiful Georgian and Victorian architecture with the Newport Minster church in the centre. Some of the island's top attractions are also nearby, including English Heritage's magnificent Carisbrooke Castle and the stunning parkland of Robin Hill Country Park. Regular car ferry travel links from Fishbourne to Portsmouth and East Cowes to Southampton are just a 20-minute drive away, and the Cowes to Southampton catamaran foot passenger service is located only 7.9 miles away. A frequent Southern Vectis number 6 bus service serves Sandy Lane and all other Island bus services connect at the nearby Newport bus station.
