Clatterford Shute, Newport, Isle of Wight

This beautifully maintained detached, period Grade II listed home offers a rare blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and exceptional versatility in a peaceful village setting. Dating back to the mid 1700s, it retains an abundance of character features including flagstone floors, original doors, fireplaces, and exposed brickwork, all thoughtfully preserved by the current owners. The accommodation flows naturally, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.

A charming entrance porch leads into two inviting reception rooms, each offering its own ambience for relaxation or entertaining. The sitting room is filled with natural light and centred around a feature fireplace with a wood burning stove, while the snug provides a cosy retreat ideal for reading, working, or quiet evenings. The impressive farmhouse style kitchen is both practical and full of personality, with wooden work surfaces, fitted cabinetry, and a unique glazed floor panel revealing an original well beneath. Adjoining this space is a bright and spacious sunroom, perfect for dining or unwinding while enjoying views of the garden.

Upstairs, three bedrooms offer comfortable and flexible accommodation, each with its own charm. The main bedroom benefits from built in wardrobes and a feature fireplace, while the remaining rooms provide ample space for family, guests, or alternative uses. A well appointed bathroom with both a bath and separate shower completes the first floor. The property also benefits from electric radiators in the majority of rooms.

A major advantage of this home is the self contained annexe, offering a kitchen, shower room, and open plan living and sleeping area. Ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or a private workspace, it provides excellent flexibility with its own entrance and outlook.

Outside, the mature gardens create a peaceful retreat with lawned areas, colourful planting, and a terrace perfect for outdoor dining. A generous driveway and detached double garage with electric roller door and EV charging point add further convenience. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy village living with character, space, and exceptional versatility.

What the Owner says:

It is so difficult to put into words how much we have enjoyed living in this beloved home and its gorgeous surroundings in the picturesque ye olde village of Carisbrooke. Every aspect of living here has enriched our lives, and we have tended to this historic house and its country garden with as much love and care as possible. Alas, our plans have taken a new direction, so the home will be ready for its new happy owners.
The house itself oozes character at every glance, and every room has its own unique charm. The house bricks were hand-made nearby at Prangnell Brickworks by Newtown Creek, and you will spot the makers ‘key' brick-mark on several, as well as a signed ‘Prangnell' brick by the wisteria at the front of the house. The garden also has its own unique spaces and boasts a beautiful central flowerbed which turns into a wonderful tapestry of colourful blooms in the summer. There is a grape bearing vine, and a fig tree that provides delicious fruit in abundance, as well as apples, conference pears, and Bramleys for delicious apple crumble! The garden is also shared by a local red squirrel family, as well as passing pheasants and ducks.
The surrounding countryside is glorified by the charming waterways and fords that cross the lanes nearby, and the natural marshland opposite is home to an abundance of wading birds.
