This charming, three-bedroom character property is located in the
picturesque village of Niton and is set well back from the road
within beautifully manicured grounds. Originally built around 1830,
this beautiful stone cottage has undergone extensive renovations
and the result is a stunning combination of modern conveniences and
old-world charm.
On the ground floor to the front are the separate lounge and
dining rooms; both with beautiful oak beams, and the dining room
has a delightful original working fireplace. The lounge has been
fitted with an attractive wood burning stove, adding to the cosy
ambiance this room exudes.
The contemporary dual aspect kitchen breakfast room has been
designed to complement the property's period features, with blue
shaker style cabinets, an impressive range cooker and integrated
dishwasher and washing machine. This is a lovely, light area, with
French doors leading directly onto a paved patio area at the side
of the house, with views overlooking adjacent farmland – an ideal
layout for making al fresco dining easy within this private area.
Also, conveniently located on the ground floor is a bathroom with a
combined bath and shower.
To the first floor are three bedrooms, all beautifully
decorated, again, to compliment the historical character of this
property. Bedroom one benefits from another, gorgeous period
fireplace, as does bedroom two. Bedroom one also boasts a modern
en-suite shower room and both main bedrooms have built in
wardrobes.
Outside, this property is set in spectacular, wrap-around
gardens that are a delightful mix of manicured lawn, mature plants
and trees and a paved patio area allowing privacy from neighbouring
homes and creating a wonderful oasis for the occupants.
A wonderful addition to the property is the recently constructed
and substantial garden room that has electricity and heating,
making it the perfect place to sit back and enjoy the stunning
views of the garden. This building also has broadband, wi-fi, and a
television point so allows potential for use as a home office or
additional guest accommodation if required.
What the Owner says:
I fell in love with this cottage almost the second I passed through
the front gate and have lived here happily for eight years since. I
could not believe my luck finding such a
fantastic, old character cottage that had recently been renovated,
and I discovered, amongst other things, it had brand new
floorboards and joists, a new roof and had been plastered
throughout. The result is a house that not only exudes character,
but that is practical and comfortable, with no maintenance
requirements – a rare thing in centuries-old properties. Although
situated in the centre of the village, it has a large pretty garden
that is not overlooked and very private.
Niton is such a special place to live because it is a small,
friendly village and at the same time, has everything we need,
right on the doorstep. There are two great pubs - The Buddle and
The White Lion - both of which serve delicious food; two lovely
little cafés – one of which has a bar and a post office. Plus,
there is a very well stocked supermarket just a stone's throw away
with its own large car park. There is also a GP surgery and
pharmacy, a library and a highly sought after primary school and
nursery. There is little reason to want to leave here, however, it
is only a few miles from Ventnor, which boasts some of the best
restaurants in the country and has a gorgeous beach. You can catch
the number six bus there and also to the island's principal town of
Newport, which has lots of shops, restaurants and bars.
