Northwood, Cowes


Description
Occupying a substantial plot, Setterside presents an enviable opportunity to acquire a detached four-bedroom home complete with large rear garden, small paddock and countryside views.

This substantial property is situated in generous size gardens and also has a small paddock, located on Newport Road close to plenty of local amenities. Perfectly suitable for equestrian use, the property is set back from the road and situated in a picturesque position providing a fabulous outlook across the surrounding countryside.

Dating back to the 1930s and owned by the current vendor for 40 years, the house has been a much-loved and well-maintained family home which was extended during the 1980's to create additional living and bedroom accommodation, perfect for a growing family or a multi-generational household requiring independent spaces. Providing the option to be divided or remain as part of the main home, the two-storey side extension alone offers a spacious living room, two bedrooms and a Jack and Jill en-suite bathroom. Additionally, an integral double garage was also created as part of the extension which could potentially provide a further opportunity to create additional accommodation if required. The well-presented accommodation comprises a porch entrance leading to an entrance hall which leads to a spacious dining room connecting with a beautiful living room, and a kitchen-breakfast room complete with a utility area and a cloakroom. Continuing from the kitchen-breakfast room is a sunroom with views over the rear garden and a stable-style door to an attached timber-framed cabin. The entrance hall hosts an original staircase to the first floor, and an additional staircase is located on the adjacent side of the property within the living room. Located on the first floor are four double bedrooms, a shower room and a Jack and Jill en-suite bathroom which serves bedrooms one and two.

Externally, the house has a gated driveway to the front providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles and the rear garden has a large, well-kept lawn area with an enclosed area designed for dog kennel use. The paddock is situated alongside the garden and backs onto a neighbouring field.

Situated in close proximity to the village shop, pub and a local garage/fuel station, Setterside is located in the sought-after Northwood area, just minutes from the bustling sailing town of Cowes which is a magnet for the sailing community, each year playing host to the world-famous Cowes Week and is the starting point for the Round the Island Yacht race. Cowes provides wonderful boutique shops, independent restaurants, bars and cafes, as well as the high-speed passenger RedJet service to Southampton. The town's 'twin', East Cowes, is reached by chain ferry across the Medina estuary where a part of British history can be enjoyed at Osborne House, Queen Victoria's former seaside residence. Furthermore, the principal town of Newport with its bustling High Street is located just a few miles away offering popular eateries and cafes, a cinema, and the highly regarded Quay Arts Centre offering a vibrant arts scene and cultural events.
