Early‑17th‑century cottage with vast private gardens and studio over garage, minutes from beach and village amenities.
Grade II listed detached cottage, early 1600s origin
Stoneham is a substantial Grade II listed detached cottage, originally dating from the early 1600s, set in just over a quarter of an acre of mature, historically important gardens. The house combines abundant original features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces, flagstone and timber floors, multi‑paned windows and period radiators — with modern conveniences including a contemporary kitchen, three bath/shower rooms and gas central heating. Multiple reception rooms, two staircases and flexible bedroom space give the house versatility for family life, working from home or creative use of the studio.
The gardens are a primary asset: extensive, well tended lawns, fruit trees, vegetable beds, original paths, an operational well and greenhouse create private outdoor rooms and strong scope for growing or horticultural projects. A large detached garage with a bright studio above expands the footprint and offers a home office, studio or guest accommodation, with direct garden access and useful workshop space below.
Practicalities are straightforward: freehold tenure, mains gas, electricity and water, very low flood risk and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. The property sits moments from Brading’s amenities, countryside and long beaches, while Ryde and Newport are around a 15‑minute drive — a rural village location with easy mainland links.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing protects historic fabric but will restrict alterations and can complicate works or extensions. Council Tax is in Band F and running/maintenance costs for an older, listed house and large garden should be expected. The wider area indicators show higher local crime and some area deprivation, which buyers should weigh alongside the property’s private, well‑maintained setting.
