£895,000 via Fine & Country, Isle of Wight: 01983 213095

In a peaceful location, in the village of Calbourne approached via a private drive lies this gorgeous, grade two listed, thatched, 17th century farmhouse. The rear elevation of the thatch and ridge has recently been renewed, whilst the front was completed 6 years ago. Set in 13.12 acres of land with numerous outbuildings, plus a self-contained converted barn, there is a great deal on offer here. Built in 1630 from island stone, the delightful, thatched home is filled with period features and exudes charm and character throughout. The ground floor comprises of three large reception rooms as well as a large conservatory that extends two thirds of the length of the property and serves as a multifunctional room, offering both a dining and sitting area. Two of the main reception rooms have huge, inglenook fireplaces providing impressive focal points, as well as beautiful, exposed beams overhead. Adjoining both the conservatory and one of the living rooms is the kitchen, boasting a gorgeous, oil-fueled Aga for cooking and heating the home as well as an array of fitted storage and space for seating. Conveniently leading directly off the kitchen is a good-sized utility, toilet and shower room. There are two staircases in this property, affording flexibility and choice about the best way to access the respective first floor rooms. The principal bedroom enjoys its own dressing room which has natural light provided by a window at the front, so could allow this room to function as a nursery if required, plus a Jack and Jill ensuite bathroom, as well as attractive period features, such as exposed beams and a fireplace. Bedrooms two and three are both good sized doubles and both benefit from built-in storage and the same, original features as seen elsewhere throughout the home.

Outside is a good sized, low maintenance enclosed garden at the rear, overlooking the farm courtyard. Additionally, to the southern boundary, beyond the barns there are two poultry houses, a wildlife pond, a green house, vegetable patch and an orchard, with mature plum and apple trees as well as a large, open fronted, three bay barn, an enclosed barn and a large workshop/kennel with electricity. Including the farmland, the property is sold with 13.12 acres.

What the Owner says:
Calbourne is located in the largely unspoilt, West Wight – the least populated area on the island and home to some of the most breathtaking countryside in the country. From here there is easy access to Brighstone Forest and Mottistone Downs to satisfy keen walkers and there's a large nature reserve owned and managed by the National Trust that is an excellent place to watch wading birds, white tailed sea eagle and even visiting seals! Whilst its quiet, tranquil beauty is to be envied, it's not without its amenities, as well as Winkle Street an attraction to Island visitors within a few minutes' walk from this beautiful property. The village has a garage, a church, a community centre and village green hosting cricket and football matches. Just a ten minute drive away is the island's principal town of Newport, with a variety of shops, entertainments, restaurants and bars and an equally short distance to the well-appointed village of Brighstone, which has a doctors surgery, a superb family run shop and The Three Bishops public house.
