House For Sale £925,000
Rushclose, Shanklin, Isle of Wight

This impressive and contemporary detached seven-bedroom residence was built in 2008 and has recently been refurbished to incorporate all the mod cons associated with modern day living. It nestles in about a third of an acre and is situated on the outskirts of Shanklin along a quiet cul-de-sac and bordered by a young laurel hedge. The property is approached via a spacious driveway where you can park six or seven cars and leads to the garage. With its mellow brick work, differing roof lines, multi-pane and bay windows, covered porch and attractive front door the house has delightful external appeal. The appeal of this large family home continues as you walk into the spacious and welcoming reception hall with its muted grey colour scheme that flows throughout the ground floor. There is a good size family room, and a study that is ideal for anyone working from home as it is situated just inside the front door and next to the cloakroom. However, the ‘piece de resistance' in this extensive property is the stunning L-shaped open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area. With its patio doors in the lounge/dining area and six bi-folding doors to a decked terrace it is very light and bright and, when the bi-fold doors are open, it really is like bringing the outdoors inside. The beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast area includes porcelain tiled flooring, a large central island/breakfast bar, a five gas ring range cooker and attractive contemporary units housing an oven and microwave, fridge freezer, dishwasher and wine chiller as well as an under counter chrome sink. There is an adjacent fitted utility room with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer that leads to a lobby with a back door to the garden, a wet room and the gym, which is incorporated in part of the garage. The main staircase leads from the hall up to the large and impressive galleried landing. On the first floor you will find five double bedrooms that all have en suite facilities. On the second floor there is a single and double bedroom with vaulted ceilings and Velux windows serviced by a jack and jill bathroom. The vast rear garden area has been designed with entertaining and relaxation in mind. There is a 35-metre decked terrace that spans the rear of the property where you can enjoy al fresco dining.

What the Owner says:
We bought this house nearly five years ago as we had an extended family and the accommodation available was ideal for our needs. We also liked being on a quiet cul-de-sac that is safe for children and pets. At the same time, we are not far from the beach and Shanklin town centre. However, we no longer need such a large property so are going to downsize and hope that a new family will enjoy everything this charming property has to offer.

Shanklin is a delightful seaside resort including the impressive Shanklin beach that was winner of the Beach of the Year Award in the Countryfile Magazine in 2019. The Old Village is charming with its thatched cottages, independent shops, restaurants, and pubs while the Shanklin Theatre provides a variety of professional and amateur shows for evening entertainment. There is a real feeling of community and, if you enjoy the ‘great outdoors' there is nothing like a bracing walk with the dog or a cycle ride to Culver Down or Ventnor. You will also find suitable infant nurseries in the vicinity as well as find two good primary schools.
