House For Sale £497,500
Boasting a prime position in a peaceful cul-de-sac, this spacious four-bedroom home has been superbly upgraded and is conveniently positioned just a short walk from the town centre.
Tucked away within St Nicholas Close with just one other neighbouring property, Windrush is a beautifully presented home which offers a convenient lifestyle close to Newport High Street, whilst being well-connected to the surrounding countryside. Transformed by the current owners over the past few years, the property now offers contemporary interiors and a whole host of significant upgrades such as the creation of a utility room, and the removal of a partition wall to create a sociable open plan kitchen-diner with new patio doors and sleek kitchen cabinetry. Ensuring a cosy and welcoming home, a modern coal-effect gas fire has been installed in the living room and a ‘hydrogen-ready’ gas boiler was fitted recently in July 2022. Externally, the house has been beautifully modernised with a grey composite front door and coordinating wood-effect panels which also feature on renovated dormer windows to the front and rear. A delightful wrap-around garden offers a peaceful outdoor environment complete with a fabulous workshop offering the versatility to be utilised for other purposes such as a home office or creative studio.
The accommodation comprises a light and airy entrance hall which leads to a spacious living room, an open plan kitchen-diner, a convenient ground floor cloakroom, and a fourth double-sized bedroom which currently used as a study. Offering an additional living space, a large conservatory to the side of the home connects with the living room, and a utility room is accessed via the kitchen, providing a separate room for laundry-related tasks. The first floor consists of three further bedrooms and a well-appointed, contemporary shower room.
Offering a convenient lifestyle, St Nicholas Close is perfectly placed on the outskirts of Newport town centre offering a wide range of amenities including a variety of shops, a cinema complex, restaurants and cafes. Multiple schools at primary and secondary level are within walking distance and the Southern Vectis bus station is located within the town centre providing an extensive network of bus routes across the island. Well-connected to the surrounding countryside, the property is near to the riverside Red Squirrel cycleway and a historic walk up to the magnificent Carisbrooke Castle. Other top family attractions in Newport include the multi award-winning Monkey Haven and the spectacular Robin Hill Country Park, both extremely popular with residents and visitors alike. Being centrally located means you are never far from all the wonderful delights that the island has to offer, including the beautiful West Wight with its unspoiled beaches and spectacular coastline. Furthermore, mainland travel links are located within a 20-minute drive from the property including the Wightlink car ferry from Fishbourne to Portsmouth, the Red Funnel car ferry from East Cowes to Southampton, and the high-speed Red Jet foot passenger service from Cowes to Southampton.
Welcome To Windrush
Accessed via Whitepitt Lane, Windrush and just one other property are nestled away at the end of St Nicholas Close. Occupying a spacious plot with well-kept boundary hedging, Windrush is set within a large front garden with two mature trees and a spacious driveway edged with a delightful plant border featuring mature shrubs such as euphorbia and buddleia. The driveway provides an approach to an attached single garage and a pathway passing a smart gravel area to an anthracite grey entrance door.
Entrance Hall
Bathed in natural light from the glazed entrance, this L-shaped hall provides a welcoming, stylish space with its crisp white walls and a high quality, a wood-effect vinyl floor which continues to the living room, kitchen-diner, and ground floor cloakroom.

The majority of the garden is edged with mature plant beds which feature a variety of shrubs and there is also a range of well-established trees such as palms, holly, and an apple tree - all of which create an appealing environment for wild birds. Encouraging a greater diversity of local wildlife, the lawn area features a delightful fish pond where there is a retaining plant bed wall creating a bench area, from which you can sit and relax by this tranquil setting. Furthermore, the garden offers a greenhouse alongside a small plot for vegetables to be grown, and there is an additional patio seating area just outside of the conservatory. The garden also benefits from four external lights and an outside tap.
Garage And Driveway
A driveway to the front provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads to an attached garage with a white door. Benefitting from recently replaced roof felt, the garage is a single size and houses a gas meter plus an electrical consumer unit.
