Fishbourne Lane, Fishbourne, Isle Of Wight, PO33

Sweeping through an impressive curved brick wall entrance onto a very spacious frontage, where you can park at least seven or eight cars, you have your first glimpse of this delightful property. With its newly rendered cream coloured exterior, cathedral style dormer windows, attractive pitched roof porch and wood front door, the house has immediate kerb appeal. It has been upgraded and completely refurbished inside and out and this is particularly apparent as you walk into the large, dual aspect and open plan family space that includes a new and contemporary kitchen as well as seating and dining areas with high end and hard-wearing laminate flooring and bi-folding doors to the rear terrace.

The kitchen includes a central island/breakfast bar as well as a selection of flat fronted white and grey units housing a variety of appliances including an induction hob with an automatic extractor, a built in high-tech double oven, an integrated dishwasher, larder fridge and matching freezer. On the other side of the house there is a very large utility room and cloakroom that not only includes laundry facilities but also has fitted units housing another dishwasher and fridge/freezer and is ideally located for outdoor entertaining and barbecues. The utility room is adjacent to a study. This is usefully sited just inside the front door so if you are working from home and have business visitors they do not need to venture into the main part of the home. Alternatively, it would be possible to adapt the utility room and study into a small annex for an elderly relative, if required. There is also a good-sized lounge with French doors to the terrace and a log burning stove you can cosy up to on a cold winter's evening.

On the first floor you will find a modern family bathroom with a bath and separate shower as well as four bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and dormer windows including the dual aspect main bedroom and en suite shower room.

The rear garden includes a terrace that spans the width of the property and a raised decked seating area. The rest of the easy to manage fenced garden is primarily laid to lawn interspersed with mature trees and shrub borders.

What the Owner says:

We bought the house because of the excellent location and it also provided for our inter-generational needs but we now feel it is time to downsize. We have been delighted to refurbish the property throughout so that all new owners need to do is install their furniture as it has been upgraded from top to bottom. It is very quiet and peaceful being set back from the lane yet it is only a short walk to the ferry and only a street away from Wootton Creek. We can stroll down to the beach in a few minutes and there is an excellent gastropub at the end of the road that provides wonderful food. We are not far from Ryde while there are regular buses that go to Newport and can take children to the nearby schools.
Ryde is a fascinating town with its quirky mix of Victorian architecture and traditional seaside entertainment. It includes a wide selection of independent shops, a plethora of bars, cafes and restaurants and, unlike some places on the island, it is a hive of activity all year round with a variety of events from the Classic Car Show and the August Bank Holiday scooter show to a selection of concerts. There are a number of great beaches around Ryde but Appley beach is stunning with long stretches of sand bordered by the park that includes Appley Tower and a playground for young children. There are also excellent educational facilities with both private and state schools available and a nearby golf club for golfing enthusiasts.
