Summary - 24 NEW BARN ROAD EAST COWES PO32 6AY
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious plot and character details awaiting renovation and modernisation.
Victorian detached house with original sash windows and stained glass
This Victorian detached house on New Barn Road offers generous period character across three floors and a large mature plot. Original features — sash windows, fireplaces, panelled walls and stained glass — give the home a strong sense of history and flexible living space ideal for families who value character. Off-street parking and a sizeable rear garden with summer house, greenhouse and sheds are valuable outdoor assets.
The property has six bedrooms and versatile reception rooms, but buyers should note the total recorded floor area is small (828 sq ft) for the bedroom count; internal space feels compact and some rooms will need careful layout planning. The house requires renovation throughout, and there are clear upgrade items: oil-fired boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002, and assumed cavity walls with no added insulation.
There is scope for improvement and possible loft conversion subject to planning, making the house suitable for a growing family looking to add value, or a purchaser wanting to restore period detail. Practical considerations include above-average council tax, an oil fuel supply (not community), and the need to verify planning/consent for any extensions or conversions before work begins.
Set in a sought-after area of East Cowes with good mobile and broadband connectivity and straightforward access to local schools, the house suits buyers seeking a characterful family home who are prepared to undertake renovation and modernisation to unlock its full potential.
