Cottage for sale in East Cowes Road, Whippingham PO32

This stunning Grade II listed period cottage boasts plenty of local history and has undergone extensive upgrades in recent times. Designed by Prince Albert for his brickworkers to live in, the property was built in 1852 and retains its traditional charm with modern features for contemporary life. New boiler, radiators and fully re-wired in 2020 with all carpets added since then. The property boasts Everest secondary glazing and recent multi-fuel stove.

Set amongst beautiful grounds with a large level of outside space, in a cul de sac on the outskirts of Newport and Whippingham, this wonderful and unique rural home truly is a must view.

The upgraded accommodation briefly consists of two double bedrooms, a living room with wood burner, open plan kitchen / diner, conservatory, bathroom plus a downstairs W.C.

Outside to the very front of the property, there is a large gated driveway providing an abundance of off road parking. The driveway leads to a former wash house which is now used as garage space and large utility area. With plenty of storage as well as a further W.C. There is much conversion potential.

Large, well maintained gardens surround the property providing a peaceful and private environment. A three bedroom mobile home is pitched in the garden and makes for ideal guest space. To the very end of the gardens there is a large outbuilding and workshop with further vehicular access.

Given the size of the plot, we believe that there is the possibility of obtaining planning for development, however permissions would need to be sought.

Just a short drive from the ferry and within easy access to the bus links, this incredible home is offered to the market with no onward chain, and would suit a whole host of buyers.
