Ashey Road, Ryde, Isle of Wight

Originally commissioned as a guest house in 2007, this impressive detached residence offers generous, versatile accommodation in a tranquil countryside setting—while remaining just a short distance from Ryde and its amenities. Approached via an expansive gravelled frontage with parking for at least twelve vehicles and a three- bay garage, the property immediately sets the tone for space and practicality. Wide ground-floor doorways enhance accessibility, and the home benefits from fire doors, a commercial-grade alarm system and emergency lighting.

The charming grey-stone façade and rosewood-effect uPVC windows create an inviting first impression, leading into a substantial reception hall with wood flooring that continues through much of the ground level. The light-filled, double-aspect dining room sits alongside a generous ground-floor double bedroom, complete with en-suite bathroom and French doors opening directly onto the garden.

The triple-aspect sitting room features an attractive brick fireplace with log burner, and opens into the garden room via glazed double doors. This delightful space enjoys windows on three sides and French doors to the terrace. A sizeable games room with twin bay windows offers further flexibility, while the modern kitchen provides a central island/breakfast bar, extensive wood cabinetry and integrated appliances, served by a fitted utility room and a separate cloakroom.

A galleried landing on the first floor leads to a family bathroom, a family shower room and five to six bedrooms, all enjoying superb rural views. One bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower; another boasts both an en-suite shower and walk-in wardrobe, along with direct access to an additional room ideal as a sixth bedroom, office or nursery. The top-floor loft room offers excellent scope as a playroom or a peaceful home-office suite.

The grounds feature a wraparound terrace with hot tub, a large storage shed, and extensive lawned gardens bordered by mature trees.

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and versatile home in a picturesque rural position close to Ryde.
