THE BUNGALOW
Approached along a quiet, private lane and set well away from passing traffic, this attractive detached bungalow enjoys an exceptionally tranquil position within the heart of Brighstone. Originating from an old stone barn, the property has evolved over the years with extensions to create a light and versatile home overlooking the established gardens.
The accommodation offers good flexibility, with a generous reception space and three bedrooms, whilst the mature gardens, extensive parking and detached garage combine to create an appealing village property. Although certain elements would now benefit from modernisation, the bungalow offers considerable scope for enhancement and personalisation, allowing an incoming purchaser to create a wonderful long-term home.
Brighstone is widely regarded as one of the Isle of Wight’s most attractive villages, renowned for its thriving community, picturesque surroundings and excellent amenities including a village shop, café, public house, church, doctor’s surgery and primary school. The nearby south-west coastline is designated as part of the Isle of Wight National Landscape and provides access to some of the Island’s finest beaches and spectacular coastal walks, whilst the surrounding downland offers countless opportunities for walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits. The county town of Newport lies approximately seven miles to the east, providing a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities.
