Set in an enviable, tucked-away position on the outskirts of Newport, Simland is a beautifully presented detached bungalow originally dating from the late 1930s, offering a wonderfully light and stylish home with a strong sense of individuality. The accommodation has been well maintained and thoughtfully arranged, with elegant décor that complements the character and proportions of the property. A generous lounge/diner forms the heart of the home, opening directly onto a raised sundeck and garden, while three bedrooms, a well-appointed kitchen and a luxurious bathroom provide comfortable, practical living. Outside, the property continues to impress with plentiful driveway parking, a detached garage, access to both sides, a front terrace and a large rear lawn framed by mature trees for a private, leafy outlook.

Located in an enviable, tucked-away position on a tranquil lane on the outskirts of Newport, Simland is perfectly placed for those seeking a peaceful semi-rural setting without compromising on everyday convenience. St Georges Lane leads onto the spectacular St Georges Down, where elevated countryside, far-reaching views, Newport Golf Club and an extensive network of rural footpaths and bridleways are all close at hand. Newport itself offers a wide range of amenities including High Street shops, restaurants, cafés, supermarkets and a cinema complex, while multiple schools at primary and secondary level are within walking distance. The property is also well connected by public transport, with Southern Vectis bus stops located moments away on Blackwater Road. Its central island position makes it especially convenient for exploring the Isle of Wight, including the beautiful West Wight, while regular car ferry links from Fishbourne to Portsmouth and East Cowes to Southampton are both within a 20-minute drive, with the Cowes to Southampton catamaran foot passenger service approximately six miles away.

Approached along a quiet lane with a distinctly leafy, rural feel, Simland enjoys a discreet and welcoming position set back from the road. A generous gravelled driveway provides plenty of parking and leads to the detached garage, while a raised front terrace creates an attractive arrival point with space for potted planting and outdoor seating. The front elevation has a pleasing mid-century simplicity, softened by mature planting and framed by established greenery, giving the home an inviting first impression.

Family Bathroom - The fabulous bathroom combines deep, dramatic wall colour with classic fittings and patterned flooring to create a wonderful space. A freestanding roll-top bath sits alongside a luxuriously large separate walk-in shower enclosure, with a traditional-style basin, WC, brass-toned fittings and two obscure windows completing the space.

Outside - Simland enjoys a generous plot with useful outside areas to the front, side and rear. The gravelled driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached garage, while side access is available on both sides of the bungalow. A raised front terrace offers an attractive seating area, and to the rear, the lounge/diner opens onto a substantial sundeck with space for outdoor dining. Steps lead down to a large lawn, enclosed by mature trees and established planting, creating a private and leafy garden with a wonderful sense of calm.
