Nestled in the heart of stunning countryside up a private drive,
this beautiful, former coach house, set in the picturesque hamlet
of Horringford is the perfect combination of modern convenience and
old-world charm, further to its extensive renovation by the current
owners.
The entrance hallway can be accessed either via a pretty, stable
door or directly from the integrated garage. Leading from the
hallway is the gorgeous, light sitting room that boasts a feature
fireplace with a multifuel burner, solid wood flooring and dual
aspect windows and French doors that open onto one of the pretty
cottage gardens. From there is the stunning, open plan kitchen and
dining area that is flooded with light from the impressive bifold
doors that span almost the entire width of the wall, plus a second
set of bi-folds, as well as a large lantern skylight. This
fantastic space has a gorgeous, fitted kitchen, with attractive
bamboo countertops, integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, a
useful breakfast bar and a beautiful aga, as well as a conventional
oven. Directly off the kitchen is a substantial utility room that
works superbly as a boot room as well, having external access via
another delightful stable door to the gardens. From here there is
also a separate cloakroom, concluding the ground floor
accommodation.
The first floor is divided into two areas, each with its own
staircase affording flexibility of use. Bedroom one is a good-sized
double with its own ensuite and views over the pretty garden and
countryside beyond. Likewise, bedrooms two and three are of good
proportions and share similar views, and both have use of a
gorgeous family bathroom, with a separate shower and luxurious
bathtub.
Outside, the property is framed by simply stunning wrap around
gardens filled with delightful flowerbeds, a gorgeous, natural
stone patio and manicured lawn, all bordered by a pretty stone
wall. Screened behind the large barn, a wonderful practical area
has been created, with raised beds for vegetables and compost
areas. There's driveway parking for numerous vehicles, as well as
the integrated garage.
The large barn has benefitted from a new roof and been
repointed. The barn was originally used for horses and provides
enormous potential to a buyer. The main barn extends to 45 ft in
length, with an additional potting shed with its own separate
access door.
What the Owner says:
Horringford is a hamlet on the outskirts of the ancient village,
Arreton - a lovely, friendly community and an ideal place to raise
a family or enjoy a peaceful retirement. There are countless walks
in the area, including Arreton downs - an Area of Specific
Scientific Interest – and the famous Red Squirrel trail that runs
along an old railway line adjacent to the river Yar. We are lucky
enough to have our own woodland garden, which encourages visits
from the red squirrels, woodpeckers and a variety of other
wildlife.
Conveniently located a few minutes' walk from the property is
Harvey Browns – a farm shop showcasing such a vast array of the
finest Isle of Wight produce that you could feasibly do your entire
grocery shopping here. There's also a fantastic restaurant there
with stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
Within Arreton village is a post office, convenience store and
The White Lion pub, serving quality food and drink. There's also
Arreton Barns which has the Island's largest selection of shops
selling arts and crafts by local artisans and artists, as well as a
pub - The Dairyman's Daughter – that serves traditional pub meals
and local ales.
The number 3 bus passes through the village between Newport and
Ryde via Sandown and Bembridge, and in the summer there's also the
Downs Breezer bus.
