This stone-built three-bedroom semi-detached cottage sits in picturesque Arreton and is offered chain free. The house retains original character — exposed beams, a sizeable lounge with original fireplace and a Victorian range in the dining room — while occupying a generous, fully enclosed rear garden and off-street parking for several vehicles.
Practical points are straightforward: there is a wet room on the ground floor, double glazing (installed before 2002) and a decent plot with mature planting. The upper floor provides two doubles and a smaller third room suited to a child’s bedroom or home office, with pleasant countryside views from the first floor.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The property is historic (built before 1900) with stone/limestone walls that are assumed to lack insulation; some upgrading may be needed for modern energy efficiency. Heating information is inconsistent in the paperwork: the technical data lists electric storage heaters as the main heating source, while the description also refers to gas central heating — this should be confirmed. Double glazing is older and there is scope for further modernisation, making the cottage a good candidate for sympathetic refurbishment rather than a fully turnkey move-in.
This home will suit purchasers looking for character and countryside living — families wanting space and a garden, buyers seeking a holiday base close to beaches and ferries, or investors targeting holiday lets. The peaceful village location, low crime levels and reasonable access to Newport amenities add practical appeal, while the property’s period features and renovation potential offer tangible upside for those prepared to invest.
