Description
A Victorian eight bedroom house with generous accommodation conveniently positioned
between Newport & Cowes, in all extending to approximately 0.3 acres.
Location - The Old Dairy Farm is set directly off the main public highway between Newport and Cowes in a mainly residential area with a convenience store opposite and extensive shopping and restaurants and bars available in both Newport and Cowes. Newport, the capital of the Island, offers a cinema, retail parks, sports facilities and a hospital while Cowes is the centre for sailing as well as offering coastal charm that makes it one of the Island’s most visited places.
The Property - The Old Dairy Farm, once the dairy at Parkhurst Farm, has a welcoming farmhouse feel throughout. The house boasts generous space and can offer eight bedrooms therefore providing for multi-generational living or a growing family. The original Victorian farmhouse was built in the late 1860’s and has been sympathetically extended in 2010 to create an L-shaped house of sizeable proportions. There is currently a large en suite double bedroom on the ground floor which would be ideal for an
elderly relative or an adult child wanting a sense of independent living within the family house. The kitchen-dining room is big enough to have the whole family around a large kitchen table and there is storage space both internally and externally, useful for all kinds of hobbies or to house vehicles and bicycles etc. The house sits centrally within its grounds, with a driveway leading directly off the road through a break in the wooden fencing, providing ample space for parking several cars. The interiors of the house are uncluttered and large double-glazed sash windows provide light as well as some views across the land at the rear towards the hilltops in the distance. Underfloor heating in the entrance hall and throughout the extended house. The garden at the rear of the house is compact with some areas laid to lawn and deep flower beds to add an element of colour through the seasons. Gravelled and paved paths create a natural link between the parking area, the house, garden and outbuildings,
making easy access to all areas.
