Only 0.8 miles from East Cowes Ferry, this recently renovated house is located on the outskirts of 250 acres of stunning, Grade I-listed parkland. This magnificent vacation home, which is surrounded by 2.5 acres of lovely gardens, provides a peaceful haven with breathtaking views of the countryside. This contemporary home, which was constructed using bricks from Queen Victoria’s original forge, is a reminder of the Island’s regal past. It offers the ideal location for a calm and tranquil retreat, sandwiched between Osborne House, Osborne Golf Course, and Norris Castle Estate. The Isle of Wight has plenty of options and activities for families looking for adventures, and outdoor aficionados may take beautiful hikes right outside their door.
Enter this lovely house, where modern furnishings and muted décor create a peaceful atmosphere. A corridor to the left of the entrance leads to two pleasant bedrooms, a roomy emperor and a tiny twin, both of which have lovely garden views. All visitors can enjoy the comfort of a well-appointed bathroom shared by these rooms. The gorgeous kitchen/dining area known as “The Hive” is located to the right, and it is the centre of the house. It has a massive solid wood table that was handcrafted from an old oak tree that used to grace the estate, along with contemporary décor. This space is ideal for family get-togethers and early planning meetings because it can accommodate 10 people. Conveniently, the small restroom is next to the kitchen. Climb the twisted oak staircase to find three double bedrooms with peaceful views of the countryside and plenty of comfort. This top floor is served with a wet room. After a day of exploring the island, the large and welcoming living area known as “The Loft,” complete with a vaulted ceiling, lots of cosy furnishings, Bluetooth speakers, and a Smart TV, is the ideal place to relax. There’s another bathroom off the living room.
Outside, on secure and private property, the magic endures. Unwind in the hot tub while taking in the stunning views of the walled garden of Norris Castle, as well as the sea and the adjacent countryside. Enjoying your morning coffee in the light-filled “Sunroom,” which is accessible from the patio, is ideal. With the lovely appearance of up-lit palm trees, the patio offers the perfect setting for al fresco eating in the sun or at night.
