House For Sale £375,000
Surrounded by a beautiful countryside setting, this spacious family cottage is beautifully presented and boasts ample driveway parking plus a stunning rear garden with a summer house.
Believed to date back to the 1950s, this attractive mid-terrace cottage offers an idyllic rural lifestyle in the small hamlet of Whiteley Bank, boasting picturesque rural views from the front and rear elevations. Immaculately presented with tasteful, complementing interiors throughout, the accommodation offers a flexible and spacious living environment with its beautiful sitting room and a separate dining room which beautifully connects with a large conservatory and a kitchen; providing a sociable space for entertaining and family meal times. Providing a further sought-after feature for a family home, the property offers a ground floor cloakroom and a utility space to keep laundry tasks separate from the kitchen. With two spacious double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a fantastic family bathroom, upstairs also provides loft ladder access to a converted attic space with a Velux window; offering huge potential to create an additional practical room for the home.
Equally as special, outside offers a generous, beautifully established rear garden extending to approximately 100ft with a well-appointed summer house at the top providing a practical outdoor space which can be utilised for multiple purposes such as a home office or a creative studio. A substantial shed provides a fabulous workshop, and could have power and lighting added via the cable that runs adjacent to the structure. Furthermore, to the front of the property is a small garden area with an extensive gravel driveway beyond providing plenty of off-road parking space. Power and water points are usefully positioned to the front and rear of the property.
1 Morley Cottages is conveniently situated just a short drive to the beautiful golden beaches of Ventnor and Shanklin, as well as the county town of Newport; all of which offer plenty of amenities including High Street shops, supermarkets, and highly regarded eateries. Whiteley Bank is also situated on the outskirts of the quintessentially English village of Godshill, again providing a whole host of local amenities as well as characterful thatched-roofed cottages and a winding main street lined with traditional tearooms. The property is well-connected to a wide range of footpaths and bridleways, providing stunning walking and cycling opportunities through the countryside. Additionally, Whitely Bank is served by Southern Vectis bus routes 2 and 3 providing regular connections to Newport and Ryde.
