Detached bungalow for sale in Main Road, Arreton, Newport PO30

Occupying a generous plot in the rural village of Arreton, this deceptively spacious four-bedroom home comes complete with a one-bedroom annexe and approximately three acres of land.

Offering the best of both worlds, The Willows enjoys a peaceful position at the end of a rural lane whilst being just a short ten-minute drive to plenty of amenities in the Island’s capital town of Newport. The property occupies an extensive plot, measuring approximately four acres, which incorporates secluded wrap-around gardens with beautiful seating areas, and a generous piece of land surrounded by glorious countryside views, providing a perfect opportunity for equestrian use. Another significant feature of this property is an attached annexe providing self-contained, one-bedroom accommodation with an en-suite, an open plan kitchen-living space, and a conservatory - a perfect solution for family members requiring independent space or a letting opportunity.

With its beautifully presented interiors, the accommodation in the main home provides a stylish and welcoming environment featuring a contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances, and ample living space provided by a living room with a cosy log-burning stove and a large conservatory overlooking the pretty garden setting. From the kitchen, a hallway extends to a beautiful, fully equipped bathroom and four double bedrooms with one benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe and another with a private cloakroom.

Furthermore, the gardens include a large outbuilding providing a fantastic opportunity to be converted into stables or an additional annexe for holiday letting, and to the front of the property is a double garage plus a driveway offering parking for several vehicles.

Tucked away next to a bridleway within the popular village of Arreton, the property is well-connected to the surrounding countryside. The historic Arreton Valley runs through the rural heart of the island and has been a centre for agriculture for hundreds of years. The village has a primary school, two highly regarded inns, a renowned farm shop and a post office, while the amenities of the county town of Newport are just a short drive away. Ferry links to the mainland from nearby Fishbourne and Ryde can be reached within a 20-minute drive from the property and the Southern Vectis bus route 8 passes through the village on its way between Newport and Ryde via Sandown and Bembridge.
