Set on nearly 1.5 acres in a quiet hamlet between Brighstone and Shorwell, this substantial detached house offers flexible family living with far-reaching coastal views. The property combines generous reception space, a versatile bedroom layout (five to six bedrooms), and a pool terrace opening onto well-landscaped grounds and farmland beyond.
Running costs are strongly mitigated by extensive energy upgrades: photovoltaic panels with Tesla battery storage, a ground-source heat pump, an air-source pool heater, and double glazing. Practical features include a large kitchen/breakfast room, multiple reception rooms, a sun room, garage, car port, electric car charging point and useful outbuildings including a barn and greenhouse.
The home has been well maintained and could suit a multi-generational family or someone seeking a nearly self-sufficient rural lifestyle. There is scope to reconfigure rooms (ground-floor annexe potential, sixth bedroom or home office) and the grounds include a levelled area previously prepared for a tennis court and productive vegetable beds.
Notable drawbacks: the location is remote with slow broadband speeds and limited local services beyond the nearby village; council tax is high; the property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s so some buyers may wish to modernise certain internal finishes. Parts of the upper floor have restricted head height in the attic/play room.
