Positioned in the idyllic village of Yarmouth on the edge of the Western Yar, this delightful semi-detached period home has been extended and updated throughout, and is beautifully presented in a chic, coastal style.
Upgraded by the current owners, Ingleton has been transformed into a cool contemporary family home, presented in a fabulous style that perfectly complements the many period features and traditional character of the original building. The property was extended in 2018 to create a modern, flowing layout, and in the same year was re-plastered, rewired and had a brand-new heating system including boiler plus the addition of stunning cast iron radiators. Most windows have also been replaced, the loft has been insulated to benefit efficiency, and the property also comes complete with a luxurious Everhot 60, used for cooking on and drying clothes. Accommodation in this wonderful home comprises a cosy living room, a dining room with separate utility area, a kitchen, a bathroom and a snug with doors to the garden on the ground floor, with three bedrooms, all with stunning views, on the first-floor.
Ingleton is set in an enviable location, just a stone’s throw from the old steam railway line that is now a famous walking and riding trail that connects to a larger network of impressive rural and coastal footpaths and bridleways that criss-cross the spectacular West-Wight. The historic harbour town of Yarmouth is within short walking distance, and provides a whole host of local amenities, including a choice of pubs and restaurants in the main square, overlooked by a 17th Century church. Yarmouth also has a substantial harbour with mooring options and continues on to the Western Yar estuary which Ingleton looks over. There is also a regular vehicle ferry crossing to Lymington, and the town is served by a Southern Vectis bus service which connects to the rest of the Island.
