Wellow , Isle of Wight

A wonderful opportunity has arisen for a new owner to acquire this truly substantial and large family house located in a sought after semi-rural village of Wellow and extending to around 0.4 acre with fine views to the south.

Elm Grange is a significant country house that was constructed to a high standard with well-proportioned rooms which exude a feeling of grandeur and elegance of the time. Finished in natural stone, the property would now require modernisation and offers a new owner the chance to put their stamp on this fine detached house.

Situated around two miles from the historic harbour town of Yarmouth with two ferry companies and an excellent range of amenities and two sailing clubs. The property is accessible and benefits from being positioned on the edge of the pretty, quiet village of Wellow, with close by access to miles of wonderful countryside walks.

There is a large stone, brick and block detached outbuilding on the east side of the house that has a substantial room off the side with its own access. This building would be perfect for an annex cottage (subject to planning) or a workshop for a car or boat enthusiast. In addition to this building, the house has a very good sized attached double garage with large loft above.
